Dockhand is a modern, self-hosted Docker management web application for real-time container management, Compose stack orchestration, and multi-environment Docker host administration. It is built with SvelteKit and Bun, uses SQLite or PostgreSQL via Drizzle ORM, and talks directly to the Docker API.

Use cases

• manage docker containers from a web ui
• deploy docker compose stacks with a visual editor
• manage multiple local and remote docker hosts from one dashboard
• deploy compose stacks from git repositories with webhooks and auto-sync
• view container logs and get an interactive shell into containers
• browse and upload files inside containers
• monitor cpu memory and disk metrics per docker host
• self-host a docker dashboard on a raspberry pi for my homelab

When to choose

• you want a lightweight, privacy-focused Docker UI with zero telemetry for a homelab or small team
• you need multi-environment Docker host management with SSO/OIDC authentication
• you want Git-based Compose stack deployments with webhooks and auto-sync
• you prefer a single-container deployment that runs on SQLite with no database setup

When to avoid

• you need RBAC, LDAP/AD integration, or compliance audit logging without paying for an enterprise license
• you only need a CLI for scripting Docker operations rather than a web UI
• you cannot or will not mount the Docker socket into a container
• you require a fully open-source license - the project has a custom (NOASSERTION) license with paid enterprise tiers
