HoloISO: Open-Source Virtual Machine & OS

Distribute web applications with HoloISO, an open-source virtual machine and operating system designed for Linux container environments and distributed setups.

What is HoloISO?

HoloISO is an open-source virtual machine and operating system designed to enable distributed web applications. It is built on top of the Holochain framework, which provides the networking and distributed data storage capabilities.

Some key features of HoloISO include:

• Ability to host distributed apps (hApps) that run entirely on user devices, without centralized servers
• Uses Holochain's agent-centric networking model to connect hApp instances peer-to-peer
• Includes a web-based hApp Manager interface for installing, running, and managing hApps
• Built-in app store for discovering and adding new hApps
• Automatic updating of hApps through the hApp Manager
• Backwards compatibility with legacy web apps through HoloPorts
• Portable and lightweight since it runs entirely from a USB stick or SD card

HoloISO serves as an operating system tailored specifically for hosting distributed apps. Its goal is to make it easy for average end users to contribute compute resources to decentralized hosting ecosystems. The open source code and peer-to-peer nature also makes censorship resistant web hosting possible.
