Displays running containers with CPU, memory, and network utilization in a sidebar panel, supports one-click container start and stop and restart actions, shows real-time log streams inline, validates docker-compose.yml syntax with schema checking, generates Dockerfile best-practice suggestions, and provides a visual Docker network topology viewer for multi-service stacks.
