One binary. Zero dependencies. Full Docker control.
terminal
$ curl -fsSL https://getkaze.dev/keel/install.sh | sudo bash $ keel One binary. Zero dependencies. Full Docker control.
$ curl -fsSL https://getkaze.dev/keel/install.sh | sudo bash $ keel 
Instead of juggling docker compose files, SSH sessions, and scattered scripts, Keel gives you a single binary that handles everything. Spin up local services, manage remote hosts, all through a clean dashboard or a handful of CLI commands.
Named after the keel, the structural backbone of a ship. It keeps your development infrastructure steady and on course, just like its namesake.
Live container status, log streaming via SSE, interactive terminal via WebSocket with multi-tab support, and inline config editing.
CPU, memory, disk, load average, uptime, and per-container Docker stats. HTTP or command-based health checks with configurable intervals.
Manage local and remote Docker hosts from the same interface. Switch targets with a single command. Dev Mode for hot-reload.
Services as plain JSON, no YAML, no templating. Bootstrap with seeders. One ~10MB binary, zero external dependencies.
Metrics: real-time host and container monitoring
Plain JSON. No magic. No templating engine.
