Can I use / view Ubuntu software online?

  • 772

I like to use / view Ubuntu software online. I meet a lot of people who don't know Ubuntu, and sometimes I want to show them more than screen shots / recording.

Is there any way I can show them Ubuntu software like Nautilus / Shotwell / Firefox / Libreoffice/ Unity interface online?

unity

  1. Go to http://www.ubuntu.com/tour/en/. You can directly show them the awesome Ubuntu software center from within your browser!!.

    You should have flash plugin installed in Firefox. If you use chrome, you will be fine. To install flash use the below link:

    flashplugin-installer Install flashplugin-installer

    or using this command in terminal

     sudo apt-get install flashplugin-installer

    Here is a screenshot running Ubuntu software center (full demo Ubuntu actually) inside a browser

  2. You could definitely run an Ubuntu instance on some cloud provider and use VNC to "show" it. You can also use the web Gtk backend like this.
