Linxr v3.0.0 Merges Docker Dashboard into Flutter App, Cuts RAM Use by 45%
The Linxr development team has released v3.0.0, integrating the standalone Docker management app Pockr directly into the Linxr Flutter application for non-rooted Android devices. Previously, running both tools required two separate QEMU virtual machine instances, doubling RAM and disk consumption on mobile hardware. The unified release runs a single Alpine Linux 3.20 guest VM hosting both a root shell and the Docker daemon. A lightweight Python API server inside the VM bridges Flutter's UI to the Docker Unix socket via REST endpoints on port 8080, enabling container deployment, start/stop controls, and real-time log streaming. The consolidation reduced memory usage by 45% and allows developers to manage containers and inspect their files from a single unified interface.
