Looks pretty nice. I love to see a real desktop app (using Qt) instead of yet another shitty Electron app. Hope that you keep working on this!

100% This.

Make desktop apps great again

Note Qt5 is currently broken in some universe MATE desktop repos.

wxwidgets would likely be cleaner to maintain over the long-term, and seems more stable for event callbacks etc.

I'll admit some users like spelunking environment variables like QT_QPA_PLATFORM, and application specific python3-venv installs...

Sometimes a web SPA is just easier to avoid the whole mess of porting. =3

Install qt5ct and set

      #!/bin/sh
      export QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct 

at /etc/profile.d/qt5.sh with 0755 perms.

In some situations qt5ct was the problem at certain points in the past. In this case that trick won't work either.

The Cinnamon desktop package is functional in 24.04 LTS for "reasons" yet to be identified.

Thanks for trying to help though =3

May I ask why people are using these desktop apps instead of Portainer and other web interfaces that run inside docker?

Best name ever.

Are you planning on a Qocker Spaniel DLC?

Can qt use break lines in cells ? It'd be easier to parse info.

Could've called it Quokka.

Nice project! I would like to see:-

- Support for Podman

- Support for Qt6

Looks like it should work with podman out of the box by setting the DOCKER_HOST environment variable to your podman socket. Or facing any compatibility issues?

It's GPL 3, so you're also free to contribute from what I can tell
