Package applications in Docker containers
Neat Packages
Conclusions and Outlook
For Kali Linux users, Kaboxer installs tools and applications that would otherwise be difficult or impossible to set up. Because containers are involved instead of regular DEB packages, you might notice slightly longer installation times. Users can package a simple application quite quickly and with a short learning curve. Whether the developers of other Debian derivatives will eventually take advantage of Kaboxer's technology remains to be seen.
