Universal interface
A real desktop, from 5 to 32 inches.
Resizable windows, dock, menu bar, Launchpad, Spotlight and Finder. The same interface answers to touch on the phone, the mouse on the laptop and the remote on the TV, in Big Picture mode.
Glass windows floating and arranging themselves into a desktop.
Operating system in the browser
A real desktop, with windows, dock and Launchpad, that opens on any screen with nothing to install. Smart TV, tablet, that old laptop or a server: same URL, same state, right where you left it.

Scroll and watch the same desktop rearrange itself: touch on the phone, mouse on the laptop, remote on the TV. Drag the windows, they are real.

Why it exists
Universal interface
Resizable windows, dock, menu bar, Launchpad, Spotlight and Finder. The same interface answers to touch on the phone, the mouse on the laptop and the remote on the TV, in Big Picture mode.
Server Mode
A Docker container at home or on a VPS unlocks a Linux terminal, VS Code, a remote browser, mapped disks, containers and the RoqueOS Agent. Optional: the PWA alone already ships dozens of apps.
Living platform
RoqueOS is a PWA. No install, no update to download, no reinstall when you change devices. New features show up the next time you open it.
Your data, yours
The server runs where you installed it. Self-hosting is not an architecture detail, it is a stance: your files, containers and automations stay with you.
Server Mode
The same script our own fleet runs. It installs RoqueOS Server on Docker, keeps the secrets off the screen and only finishes when the server answers with the new version.
$ The apps
Everything runs on the client. With Server Mode, some of them get superpowers.
Agents, Automations, Flows, Providers and Channels in one app. The RoqueOS Agent has its own Linux desktop to work in.
Folders, favorites, search, Google Drive, SMB and NFS. It is also the file picker for every other app.
Server ModeUbuntu isolated per user, with CPU and memory limits.
Editor with highlighting; in Server Mode, the full VS Code.
Rich formatting, tags, synced across devices.
Brushes, shapes, layers and export.
21 gamesThe gallery, RoqueCraft included. Outside the Launchpad, on purpose.
/tvTV mode, with D-pad navigation and a package on the LG Store.
Who it is for
The visual hub for the containers, services and servers at home. Plex, Home Assistant, Nextcloud and n8n in one click, behind a Cloudflare tunnel.
VS Code, terminal and containers from anywhere, including a tablet in a waiting room.
A ready classroom for programming, with nothing installed on the student's machine. Each one gets an isolated Linux.
An automation hub with Home Assistant built in, on the phone, the laptop and the living-room TV.
Isolated, container-based test environments. Up, test, down.
That old application that only runs on a 2009 Windows, running in a container with a web interface.

Where it runs
The native wrappers are thin: they load the same URL and add only what the device knows how to do.
In the press
Instead of carrying your computer everywhere, what about reaching your operating system from anywhere?

Questions
Yes. The PWA and the apps that run on the client are free, no card, no in-app purchase. Server Mode too: the cost is the hardware or the VPS you install it on.
To keep the desktop state across devices, yes: the account is what carries your windows from one machine to the next. You can try it before creating one.
Preferences and layout live in your account, under per-user rules. Files, containers and automations stay on the server you installed, on your hardware or in your cloud.
No. Without a server you already have the desktop, the Finder, Notes, the image editor, the games and dozens of other apps. The server comes in when you want a Linux terminal, VS Code, containers and the agent.
It does. The /tv route is Big Picture mode, with remote-control navigation, and there is a webOS package for the LG Store.
