About:
Nemu is a terminal-based user interface for managing QEMU virtual machines. It provides a streamlined, ncurses-driven dashboard to create, monitor, and control VMs without complex CLI commands. This tool simplifies virtualization workflows by offering an intuitive text-based alternative to GUI managers.
Key Features:
  • TUI interface for creating and managing QEMU VMs
  • Support for snapshots and live migration
  • Terminal-based performance monitoring
  • Simplified VM configuration workflow
Use Cases:
  • Headless server administration
  • Quick VM prototyping in terminal environments
  • Remote virtualization management over SSH
Alternatives:
  • virt-manager – GUI-based manager requiring X11, while Nemu works in pure terminal
  • qm – Proxmox CLI tool, whereas Nemu is QEMU-specific and cross-platform
