This document discusses the designs and technical details of `qvm-template`, a template manager application proposed in the 2020 Google Summer of Code program.

This document discusses the designs and technical details of `qvm-template`, the template manager application in Qubes OS.
|
||||
The goals of the project is to design a new mechanism for TemplateVM distribution and a unified tool for template management.
|
||||
|
||||
## Motivation
|
||||
|
||||
This project was originally proposed in the 2020 Google Summer of Code program.
|
||||
|
||||
Previously, TemplateVMs were distributed by RPM packages and managed by `yum`/`dnf`.
|
||||
However, tracking inherently dynamic VM images with a package manager suited for static files creates some challenges.
|
||||
For example, users may accidentally update the images, overriding local changes ([#996], [#1647]).
