## What it is
Shipyard is a composable web-based management application for Docker, providing a UI to manage containers, images, and hosts across multiple Docker engines. It historically formed the foundation for Docker Universal Control Plane but has been officially retired by its author.

## Use cases
- manage docker containers from a web ui
- manage multiple docker hosts centrally
- deploy and monitor containers across a cluster
- self-hosted docker administration panel

## When to choose
- you need to study the historical source of an early Docker management tool
- you want a simple, lightweight Docker UI to fork or adapt yourself

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained Docker management tool - use Portainer or Rancher instead
- you require security updates or official support
- you were considering the shipyard-project.com website, which is not official and has an invalid SSL certificate

## Facets
- artifact type: application
- maturity: abandoned
- function: container-orchestration, deployment, gui, monitoring
- domain: self-hosted
- platform: self-hosted
- tags: docker-management, retired-project, container-ui, web-ui, containers, devops, docker, web-server
