What is lazydocker?

lazydocker is a terminal interface for Docker and Docker Compose. It gives an at-a-glance view of your containers, shows logs and ASCII graphs of container metrics, and lets you attach to, restart, remove or rebuild containers and services. It also supports mouse use and custom commands, with binaries for Linux, macOS and Windows.
