Gantry fleet dashboard: every host with live CPU/memory sparklines and health issues

Everything Docker, the Mac way

A complete control plane for your containers — fast, focused, and right at home on macOS.

Fleet dashboard

Every host on one screen: live CPU and memory sparklines, health issues that jump straight to the culprit.

Containers, images, volumes, networks

Manage every Docker resource from one clean, unified interface.

Live logs with search

Tail container output in real time and filter instantly as it streams.

Real-time stats with charts

CPU, memory, network and I/O graphed live for every running container.

Built-in exec terminal

Drop straight into a shell inside any container — no command needed.

Container file browser

Explore the filesystem and move files in and out with drag & drop.

Remote hosts over SSH

dial-stdio tunneling, ProxyJump bastions, multi-key auth, auto-reconnect — secrets in the Keychain.

Compose project grouping

Containers organized automatically by their Docker Compose project.

Menu bar quick actions

Start, stop and check status from the menu bar without opening the app.

Create, pull & prune

Spin up containers, pull images with live progress, and reclaim space.

Agent-friendly

App Intents for Shortcuts, Siri & Spotlight, plus a built-in MCP server for AI agents.

Auto-updates via Sparkle

New releases install themselves — securely and out of your way.

Secrets stay yours

SSH credentials and host keys are stored locally in the macOS Keychain.

Built different

No web wrappers, no daemons of our own. Just a fast, native Mac app talking straight to Docker.

100% native SwiftUI

Not Electron. A real Mac app that launches instantly and sips memory.

Swift 6

Modern, concurrency-safe codebase built on the latest Swift toolchain.

Direct Engine API

Talks to the Docker Engine API directly over the unix socket — no shelling out.

SSH like docker -H

Tunnels exactly like docker -H ssh:// using docker system dial-stdio.

A closer look

Designed to feel like it shipped with the OS.
