What HN said

What people liked

  • Good idea for a web GUI for Docker

    From 2 comments
    • CLI is good and the best way to manage docker containers, however editing that compose file from a browser tab and hitting recreate slaps different. A web GUI makes it so that…

  • Keeps the terminal UI look

Objections

  • A web SSH client or terminal could already serve lazydocker

Questions

  • Can you deploy new containers from the UI

    From 2 comments
    • This reminds me of k9s, particularly the UI and full functionality. I use dockge https://github.com/louislam/dockge for managing stacks on a home server. Isaiah feels very admin…

    • Thanks for the feedback! To deploy a new container, you have two options : - From an image (in the "Images" tab), you can open the menu, and run the image as is (or press "r").…

Alternatives named

  • Portainer

    From 1 comment
    • For managing Docker installs another option could be portainer. Their community edition is open source https://docs.portainer.io/v/2.20/start/install-ce/server/docker/linux

    • Check out k9s, if you use kubernetes. It made me 100x more efficient when working across multiple clusters and namespaces.
