You can use it with GUI friendly >virt-manager, or from command line. And switching between host and guest >is switching between windows. As for shared directory, NFS? I recommend QEMU.

Moreover, you can use SPICE <https://www.spice-space.org/> to display the guest windows as individual windows in the host. Regards.
