How to disable/remove CheerpX sidebar?
I got my own VM instance runnning following the tutorial. Is there any way to disable the sidebar completely?
I would like to just have a fullscreen terminal of the VM on the page, as minimal as possible.

There is no builtin way of completely removing the sidebar, but you can modify the Svelte code to achieve that.
Ok, thanks! I thought there might be a minimal version or code example I havn't found
I'll try to remove everything then myself
I need the WebWM app to have a terminal at all, right? I tried deploying the example code from https://cheerpx.io/docs/getting-started#complete-code aswell, but I only get a black screen
No, you don't need the whole WebVM, the quickstart should work as well. Please double check your browser console for errors
It seems to work now, but it downloads a fail.wasm. It's public here: https://vm.0cx.de/index2.html
Also, can I load a cusom image? I have one uploaded
That means that there is a JIT failure which will have a negative impact on performance, but it's not fatal
If you can share a Dockerfile that reproduces the problem we will investigate at a later time
You can use a custom image:

Actually there is no JIT issue, it's just a regression in Firefox
I have build it as shown there, I was just wondering if i need to set the type from "cloud" to "bytes" or something like in the WebVM
Chrome will work fine
You need to use
byteshmm ok
but that is not set in the example code anywhere?
See here for more information https://cheerpx.io/docs/guides/File-System-support

I currently have (as per the example)
There is no clouddevice on these docs
No, because it cannot be truly used by users.
ah i see
so I need webdevice I guess
No, you need the bytes device
See the example here: https://cheerpx.io/docs/tutorials/full_os#4-create-a-device-for-the-filesystem
Perfect, thank you very much for the help!
