Everything you need to manage Docker

A full-featured dashboard without the bloat

Real-time Dashboard

Instant container status overview — running, stopped, paused — with port mappings and clickable links.

Container Control

Start, stop, restart, and delete containers individually or in bulk with instant feedback.

Live Log Streaming

Real-time log output with auto-scroll, manual override, timestamp display, and search filtering.

Web Terminal

Full interactive shell via xterm.js — both SSH server terminal and container PTY shells.

Multi-Server Support

Connect to multiple Docker hosts over local socket or remote TCP. Switch servers from the dropdown.

GitOps for Compose

Clone a git repo with compose files, edit, save, push, and deploy — all from the UI.

Image Management

Browse all images, prune dangling images, and see reclaimed disk space after pruning.

Networks & Volumes

View networks with attached containers, list volumes, and prune unused resources with space reporting.

Responsive Design

Mobile-friendly Bootstrap 5 interface that works on phones, tablets, and desktops.
