This is my second self-hosted project. If you still remember me, I am the one who created Uptime Kuma, and I had posted here 2 years ago.
After joining this subreddit, I somehow fell into love with this community and also started enjoying using docker-compose to manage my containers.
However, I always interacted with docker-compose using the CLI only, as I couldn’t find a web app that focuses on docker-compose management. Although Portainer has the ability to do that, it do not display any progress during “docker-compose up or pull” unfortunately, which makes me prefer to use the CLI.
So this time I tried to create my own stack-oriented manager to manage my compose.yaml files.
- Manage docker compose.yaml files
- Interactive compose.yaml editor
- Interactive web terminal
- The UI/UX is very similar to Uptime Kuma

It is really fully focused on docker compose, so please don’t expect to manage a single container.
Don’t forget to ⭐ the project on GitHub if you love it!
A little update for Uptime Kuma:
Uptime Kuma reached over 40,000 ⭐ on GitHub and over 48,000,000 pulls on Docker Hub!!! It is a big gift for me, thank you everyone! Uptime Kuma V2 is still under development, stay tuned!
I’m finally ‘really’ getting into Docker because of this easy-to-understand helper app.
Portainer, etc have too much going on and is wildly overkill for single instance hosts.
Basic image management/info would be a nice addition.
Great work!
As a newb to docker and as someone who hasn’t fully gelled with it this looks perfect. Seems it is doing exactly what I’m trying to do in the command line with the folder structures. Perfect timing as yesterday I completely lost the plot with my docker installation!
Hope this also help you to learn the basic concept of docker compose.
It has certainly helped me get my head round docker. I don’t have to remember what folder I left that compose file in or what that command was. Because of using Dockge I now get the correlation between the command line and compose files (although I still hate languages that rely on whitespace/indenting but that’s another rant for another day lol).
I really like the clean simplicity of this (and Uptime Kuma). Couple of things I think would be handy, some shortcuts or snippets for the console, rather than having to try and remember all the prune commands etc could have some custom one click buttons to do it (or maybe chain the commands like
docker system prune -a && docker volume prune -aetc?Are you integrating Telegram with this again? Obviously we can monitor the containers with UK but I was thinking of an alert if there’s an update available if we can add some update check?
Absolutely lovely interface though, really glad this came along. Thank you!
Great project, I love the idea. It would be even greater if you could manage images, like in Portainer for example (My use case: deleting unused images). The same question applies to the topic of volumes. Is it possible to integrate other Docker repositories as well? For Security reason it could be nice to use 2FA or Passkeys. :)
I will eagerly follow the development.
This is cute but I have to be honest I prefer using VS code with SSH and docker plugins for managing compose files.
Amazing!
I spun it up for a try. First impressions… goodbye Portainer.
Maybe.
Looks great, unfortunately i’m running on docker swarm. Hope it’ll support that somewhere in the future so i can use it. As i’m a great fan of uptime kuma and use it for work and private.
Awesome… especially the uptime kuma lile ui
Looks good, does it show logs like dozzle too?
This… is… awesome!
Does it support podman?
Is there any possible consideration to having nested stacks? I currently have different compose structures nested together which I like for grouping purposes and I imagine it should / might be a nice enhancement to this application.
This is awesome. Definitely gonna try it.
Good job on Uptime Kuma too!
Uptime Kuma is awesome. I just gave it a go yesterday to monitor an upgrade at my work and loving it. Thank you. Will check out Dockge… How does one pronounce it, btw?
Great project! Any chance to make it use with a stack already deployed? I’ve got folder structure like something/docker/container-name/docker-compose.yml with relevant volumes mapped inside specific folders in the same level as docker-compose.yml
One thing I do not like about Portainer is that he sees stacks created outside of it, but it got very limited functionalities with them. I just don’t want to recreate/move all my services. Ain’t broke, don’t fix philosophy, just me being lazy
