ducker

ducker [options]

ducker is a terminal user interface for Docker inspired by the Kubernetes tool k9s. It provides an efficient, keyboard-driven interface for managing Docker containers, images, volumes, and networks without typing long Docker commands.
The tool features a familiar UI pattern for those coming from k9s, with resource views, filtering, shortcuts for common actions, and real-time updates. It supports both Docker and Docker Compose environments.

Requires Docker daemon access. Some features require elevated permissions. Podman compatibility may vary. Complex Docker Compose setups may have limited support. Terminal must support the full range of characters used in the UI.

ducker was developed to bring the k9s experience to Docker users, providing a powerful TUI for container management. It aims to make Docker management faster and more efficient for developers who prefer terminal-based workflows.
