Dockhand gives you a visual control panel for all your self-hosted apps running as containers. From one screen you can start, stop, restart, and update anything — check live CPU and memory usage, stream real-time logs, and even open a terminal directly in your browser without needing to SSH into your server.
Managing groups of apps together (called stacks) is just as easy. You can deploy them straight from a Git repository, and Dockhand will automatically pull updates whenever you push new changes. A built-in visual editor means you can tweak how your apps are configured without ever touching a configuration file by hand.
It also keeps an eye on security — scanning your apps for known vulnerabilities before applying updates, so a bad image never quietly replaces a working one. Dockhand runs happily on low-power hardware like a Raspberry Pi, stores everything locally with no cloud dependency, and the core version is completely free.
