ContainerDeck 0.1.0
First public release of ContainerDeck — a native macOS GUI for apple/container, the lightweight Docker Desktop alternative for Apple Silicon.
Highlights
- Dashboard with running/stopped counts, CPU, memory and disk usage
- Container management: create, start, stop, restart, delete — with guided first-run kernel setup
- Container detail: configuration, live resource stats, mounted volumes, environment variables, raw JSON inspector
- Live log viewer with follow mode, text filter and copy
- Images: pull from OCI registries, delete, create containers via right-click
- Volumes: create, delete, see which containers use them
- Open container IPs in browser, VNC or FTP straight from the UI
- Shell into containers via Terminal.app
- English/Italian interface with live switching, light/dark theme
- Native SwiftUI, no Electron, zero external dependencies
Requirements
- macOS 15+ on Apple Silicon
- apple/container installed (optional — the app also runs in Demo mode)
Installation
The DMG is not notarized: after dragging the app to Applications, allow it once via System Settings → Privacy & Security → "Open Anyway". See the README for details.
