SHIPPED · v1.42.1
Linux Desktop in the Browser
New
**Install Webtop from the Stack Wizard** — a complete Linux desktop in the browser, self-hosted on your VPS
Alpine with XFCE is the default, light enough for a small server (2 GB of RAM is enough to start)
Switch to Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian or Arch, and to KDE, MATE or i3, by picking a different desktop flavour and redeploying
Sign in with a username and password you set during install
Attach a domain so the desktop is served over HTTPS — that's what browsers need for audio and video
Files you keep on the desktop survive updates
The first launch can take a few minutes while the desktop finishes setting itself up
Improved
**Cloud storage accepts the URLs you actually paste** — a Cloudflare R2, MinIO or custom endpoint works with or without `https://`, with a trailing slash, or with the bucket name still on the path. Addresses copied from the R2 dashboard are cleaned up automatically
**The R2 form tells you which endpoint to use** — the S3 API endpoint from the R2 dashboard, not the public r2.dev URL
**Switching storage providers no longer keeps the previous one's leftover settings** — changing from R2 to Amazon S3 drops the old endpoint and the region Amazon doesn't accept
**Testing a destination explains what went wrong** — wrong credentials, a missing bucket, or an unreachable host are spelled out instead of a generic failure
**Confirmations in Backup settings live in the app** — deleting a destination, clearing a passphrase, overwriting a sync snapshot, or deleting a cloud backup uses the same in-app dialog as the rest of Server Compass
**Credential fields no longer get filled with a saved website password** — access keys, secret keys, passphrases, and pCloud tokens stay empty until you type them
Fixed
Fixed **typing doing nothing after a file picker or confirmation on Windows** — the cursor blinked in the field but keystrokes never arrived until you switched away from the window and back. Typing now works immediately
Fixed **Cloudflare R2, MinIO, Hetzner and other S3-compatible storage failing to connect or upload** — destinations that look valid in their own dashboards now connect from Server Compass, which also unblocks Team workspaces that live in those buckets
Fixed **Amazon S3 connection tests failing after filling in an R2 destination first** — leftover region and endpoint values are no longer sent to Amazon
Fixed **testing a storage destination failing on S3-compatible providers even when the bucket was reachable** — a working bucket now shows as connected instead of as a failure

The Create Your App stack wizard with "webtop" searched in the template picker, showing the Webtop template card — a full Linux desktop in the browser on Alpine XFCE, tagged Dev Tools and needing 2 GB of RAM.
