DESCRIPTION

toolbox create creates a new Toolbx container based on an OCI image. By default, it creates a container matching the host system's distribution and release. Custom images can be specified for development environments or cross-distribution work.
The container is configured for seamless integration with the host, including home directory access, user permissions, and graphical application support.
