Deploy and Host Inkscape in your browser on Railway

The Inkscape vector graphics editor running in the cloud and streamed to any browser. Draw logos, icons and illustrations and edit SVG files from any computer, with your files and settings kept between sessions.

About Hosting Inkscape in your browser

The template runs the open source LinuxServer.io image inkscape:latest as one Railway service. Inkscape runs inside a minimal desktop and is streamed to your browser over Railway's HTTPS domain on port 3000. HTTP basic auth protects it with CUSTOM_USER and a generated PASSWORD that you copy from the service Variables. A volume is mounted at /config, so your drawings and settings survive restarts and redeploys. The first boot takes a minute or two.

Common Use Cases

Editing SVG logos, icons and illustrations from any device
A free vector editor on Chromebooks and computers where you cannot install software
Keeping design files in one place you can reach from anywhere

Dependencies for Inkscape in your browser Hosting

No other services: one container plus a volume
Any modern browser on the device you open it from

Implementation Details

Open the Railway domain and sign in with CUSTOM_USER and PASSWORD; Inkscape opens full screen. Upload and download files and copy and paste between your device and the cloud through the side panel. Give the service at least 1.5 GB of memory. Image: lscr.io/inkscape:latest (https://github.com/linuxserver/docker-inkscape).
