Caution

Dogebox is currently in a pre-alpha developer preview. Do not use it for any production workloads, and definitely don't send any money to addresses generated by it.

What is Dogebox

Dogebox is a Linux OS with a web-based management interface and permission-based routing and container system designed to provide a platform and DRE (Dogecoin Runtime Environment) for building services and apps on top of the Dogecoin blockchain.

Services & applications packaged for Dogebox are called 'pups', these are standard linux services that are executed in isolated containers, with access to other 'pups' and the Dogecoin blockchain via ACL/Permission controlled internal routing.
