## What it is
PXVIRT is a community fork of Proxmox VE that ports the full virtualization platform to ARM64, LoongArch, and RISC-V architectures while keeping x86 compatibility. It provides KVM/QEMU and container virtualization with the familiar Proxmox web-based management interface.

## Use cases
- run proxmox on arm64 servers
- virtualization platform for loongarch hardware
- manage kvm and lxc containers on non-x86 machines
- build a mixed-architecture proxmox cluster
- self-hosted hypervisor for arm sbc servers
- replace x86-only proxmox ve with multi-arch alternative

## When to choose
- you have ARM64, LoongArch, or RISC-V servers and want Proxmox VE features
- you need a mixed-architecture cluster with x86 and ARM nodes
- you want the Proxmox web UI and tooling on non-x86 hardware

## When to avoid
- you run only x86_64 hardware and can use official Proxmox VE
- you need vendor-backed commercial support
- you require the official Proxmox ISO/deb distribution channel

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: active
- function: container-runtime, http-server
- domain: self-hosted
