CLUSTER DOCKER-CONTAINERS-DESKTOP · 9 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-09-13

Docker container management apps

This cluster consists of desktop and terminal applications for managing Docker (and in one case Podman) containers, images, volumes, networks, and compose stacks, with features like live logs, metrics, terminal access, and multi-registry browsing. Only one dated entry exists before the index start, so the cluster's dated history is too thin to read a shape from. Among the traction leaders, dockpilot leads with 5 stars, followed by dockit with 2 stars and Plugin-Docker with 1 star.
