About:
Dockly provides a text-based user interface (TUI) directly in the terminal to visualize and manage Docker resources. It allows developers to monitor container logs, view real-time metrics, and execute commands without leaving their console environment. This tool enhances productivity by streamlining complex Docker workflows into an intuitive, keyboard-navigable dashboard.

Key Features:

Real-time monitoring of container CPU and memory usage
Interactive log viewing and container inspection
Quick actions to start, stop, restart, and remove containers
Network and image management capabilities
SSH support for remote Docker daemon connections

Use Cases:

Managing Docker containers on headless servers or remote development environments
Debugging container issues by quickly accessing and filtering logs in real-time
Performing rapid container lifecycle operations without memorizing complex CLI commands

Alternatives:

ctop – ctop offers a top-like interface focused purely on resource monitoring, whereas Dockly provides a more comprehensive suite of management actions.
lazydocker – lazydocker is a popular alternative with a similar feature set and UI philosophy, often differing in specific keybindings and visual layout preferences.
