As such one would think it only works for web-based projects or anything else that does not require a native UI. However, there’s still a plethora of native UI applications around and many of them are here to stay. In this article we’ll go through how to use Gitpod for developing native desktop UI applications.</p> <p><img src="/images/blog/native-ui-with-vnc/virtual-x-sever-running-on-a-remote-desktop-client.png" alt="VS Code in Gitpod" width="4000" height="2024" loading="lazy"></p> <p>A few days ago <a href="/blog/docker-in-gitpod">Gero introduced Docker builds to Gitpod</a> with which you can bring your own Dockerfile (instead of a pre-built image), and Gitpod will build the image for you.

It runs a <a href="https://novnc.com" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">web-based VNC viewer</a> on port 6080 — during startup, Gitpod will ask you if you want to open this page.</p> <p><img src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/6720/1*8xUjJfd3pV0QXyK-ytyhwA.png" alt="The Hello World UI example running in Gitpod" loading="lazy"><em>The Hello World UI example running in Gitpod</em></p> <h2 id="native-ui-in-gitpod--x11--vnc">Native UI in Gitpod = X11 + VNC<a href="#native-ui-in-gitpod--x11--vnc"><span class="icon icon-link header-anchor" aria-label="Native UI in Gitpod = X11 + VNC permalink"></span></a></h2> <p><a href="https://gitpod.io/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Gitpod</a> runs on Linux, so we need an X11 server that our UI application can connect to. As we do not have a physical display attached, we’ll use a framebuffer based X server, namely Xvfb. Using <a href="http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">x11vnc</a>, we can serve the virtual screen of the X server to a VNC client. There are a few VNC clients that run in the browser out there, but we’ll go with one that’s battle tested: <a href="https://novnc.com/info.html" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">novnc</a>. The combination of Xvfb, x11vnc and novnc is a proven one, and it happens to be the same that e.g. <a href="https://janitor.technology/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Janitor</a> relies on.</p> <p>To make this setup work in Gitpod, we first create a Docker image that has the required tools installed, and a small bash script to tie things together. I went ahead and prepared those things in the <a href="https://github.com/gitpod-io/workspace-images/blob/d43c719bb2ff7b6849c0456fe21e3ca06c20168f/chunks/tool-vnc/Dockerfile#L2" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">workspace images repo</a>. Any Gitpod workspace started using the workspace-full-vnc image, has a DISPLAY environment variable set in the .bashrc and comes with a running X11 server. No need for any manual setup.</p> <h2 id="lets-go-big-running-visual-studio-code-in-gitpod">Let’s go big: running Visual Studio Code in Gitpod<a href="#lets-go-big-running-visual-studio-code-in-gitpod"><span class="icon icon-link header-anchor" aria-label="Let’s go big: running Visual Studio Code in Gitpod permalink"></span></a></h2> <p>Using this setup, we can build and <a href="https://gitpod.io/#github.com/microsoft/vscode" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">run Visual Studio Code in Gitpod</a>.

To see and interact with the application, open the noVNC session that’s served on port 6080:</p> <p><img src="https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/2000/1*-yHSkPGNR6Vs07MjLKQAUA.gif" alt="How to open noVNC served on port 6080" loading="lazy"></p> <h2 id="conclusion">Conclusion<a href="#conclusion"><span class="icon icon-link header-anchor" aria-label="Conclusion permalink"></span></a></h2> <p>By plugging together a handful of tools we can develop native UI applications in Gitpod, and stay in the browser altogether. Naturally, this comes with a few limitations, e.g. at the moment this is Linux only, so testing on different platforms is not feasible. Also, noVNC disconnects from the VNC server every now and then; reloading noVNC brings it back.</p> <p>Surprisingly, frame-rate is not one of those limitations: you could <a href="https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/csweichel/gitpod-browser-demo" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">open a browser inside a Gitpod</a> and watch YouTube videos; it’s best you pick one without sound, though. :)</p> </div></div></div></article> <section id="" class="w-11/12 lg:w-full lg:max-w-[75rem] mx-auto !my-large md:!my-xx-large svelte-19uare6" style=""><div
