Box Buddy: A GUI for DistroBox

Box Buddy is a GTK app that provides a graphical user interface for DistroBox, allowing easy management of virtual Linux distributions within a terminal window. It offers features such as opening terminals, creating and deleting distributions, and selecting available options.
