03/21/2023, 11:29 AMHello all! I'm getting started using Rancher Desktop on a Mac with my team. My containers start properly with
docker compose up -dI was previously using (and uninstalled) Docker Desktop if that provides any illumination.
I assumed it should be on this Node page, but I've clicked on each of the pods and I don't see my containers running

03/21/2023, 12:07 PMi think the dashboard is kubernetes focused and doesn’t show plain docker ps results

03/21/2023, 12:15 PMOh jeesh. That was my primary use for Docker desktop. Any alternatives?

03/21/2023, 12:17 PMRD works fine for running containers, but if you need that GUI than maybe podman desktop might fit the need.

03/21/2023, 12:18 PMThat GUI would be nice. Does Podman Desktop replace Rancher Desktop?
Just downloaded. Looks like just a nice GUI 🙂

03/21/2023, 12:21 PMit doesn’t have kubernetes support so not a drop in for RD, but if you just want a container UI it will manage the WSL2 just like DD and RD. There are other projects out there as well that can just connect to your DOCKER_HOST and visualize what is running.

03/21/2023, 12:25 PMThanks! I think Podman will work for now

03/21/2023, 12:29 PMyou may want to create a docker context or manually create a DOCKER_HOST env var if you use tools that assume docker cli vs nerdctl https://podman-desktop.io/docs/migrating-from-docker/using-the-docker_host-environment-variable
