Watchdock is a Docker Desktop extension that helps manage images and containers and view image and container metrics. We created this to provide a simplified user experience so that developers can focus on creating applications instead of managing their images/containers. Watchdock is a multi-container application that has a frontend container, backend container, and database container that all communicate with each other. Its frontend is built with React and TypeScript and the backend is built with TypeScript and Node.js. Useful metrics available include CPU, Disk I/O, Memory, and Runtime.
