lscr.io/linuxserver/libreofficeWhat is LibreOffice (LinuxServer.io)?
linuxserver/libreoffice is a Docker image from the LinuxServer.io team that packages the LibreOffice office suite and streams its graphical desktop to a web browser using the Selkies remote desktop platform. Users access the full LibreOffice interface (Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Base, Math) at https://host:3001 with optional GPU acceleration. The container runs on Linux (x86-64 and ARM64) and requires a shared memory allocation of at least 1 GB. Configuration is done via environment variables for user/group IDs, timezone, optional HTTP basic authentication, language locale, and GPU auto-detection. The image is updated weekly with base OS security patches and follows the LinuxServer.io release schedule. No database or external services are required; all documents and settings persist in a /config volume.
