It extends the same keyboard-first, command-wrapping philosophy as lazygit into container management. ### Project history The public GitHub repository was created on May 18, 2019. Public releases include v0.1.3 on June 18, 2019, v0.23.0 on October 11, 2023, v0.24.0 on November 23, 2024, and v0.25.2 on April 19, 2026. ### Adoption history The README documents installation through Homebrew, Scoop, Chocolatey, asdf, binary releases, Go, Arch AUR, Docker, and other routes. GitHub repository metadata recorded 51,545 stars on July 1, 2026, and the README displayed sponsor and contributor sections, signs of a mature community-maintained developer tool rather than a one-off helper script. ### How it is used lazydocker gives one terminal window for container state, logs, restarts, shell access, and Docker Compose workflows. Its README frames the tool as an answer to juggling `docker compose ps`, logs, restarts, and multiple terminal windows. ### Why package nerds care For package nerds, lazydocker is a canonical Homebrew-era TUI: it does not replace Docker, it makes an existing command ecosystem navigable. It is also a companion study to lazygit in how Go TUIs became popular package-manager staples for daily developer operations. ### Timeline - 2019: Public GitHub repository created - 2019: v0.1.3 release published - 2023: v0.23.0 release published - 2024: v0.24.0 release published - 2026: v0.25.2 release published ### Related projects - Docker and Docker Compose are the core tools lazydocker wraps. lazygit is the sibling Jesse Duffield project that established the same style of terminal UI for Git. ### Sources - - - - - ## Security Notes narrow executable package without higher-risk signals. - **Geiger risk:** green / low - narrow executable package without higher-risk signals ## Configuration and credential file locations These source-backed paths show where this package keeps local settings or durable credentials.
