SwarmCLI the Terminal UI
for Docker Swarm
SwarmCLI is a k9s-inspired terminal interface for observing and managing services, nodes, tasks, networks, and volumes in Swarm clusters.
Why SwarmCLI
Swarm lacks a first-class, keyboard-driven UI. SwarmCLI aims to fill that gap with a fast, curses-based experience for day-to-day cluster operations.
- Real-time views for nodes, services, tasks, and containers
- Quick actions like scaling, updating, restarting, and removing resources
- Low-dependency, easy-to-install CLI built for speed and clarity
Project vision
Inspired by k9s, the goal is to provide Swarm operators a focused, intuitive tool that stays close to the terminal while surfacing the right signals.
Early-stage and open to contributors, testers, and sponsors.
