Every box starts from an image. BoxLite maintains four of them, ready to use with no setup: They are free and do not count against your image limit.

​
Or bring your own

Name any image on a public registry and a box boots it — nothing to upload, build, or approve first:

Use your own image

Start a box from any public registry, and see what gets recorded. Start here.

Pin a build

Make production boot the exact build you tested, and move it back when a release goes wrong.

Private images

Register a registry login once, then reference private images like any other.

The catalog

What is recorded when a box boots, and the limit it counts against.

​
Where to do what

boxlite images does not show the Cloud catalog. It lists images on the machine you run it from, with or without BOXLITE_REST_URL set. Use the console or rt.images.list().
Reach for the console to do something once. Reach for the SDK when it has to happen without you.
