Its <a href="https://docs.portainer.io/">documentation</a> describes the goal as hiding the complexity of managing containers behind an easy-to-use UI, so everyday container work doesn't depend on remembering CLI flags. That is a real convenience once a server runs more than a handful of containers. It is also a real responsibility, because anything that can drive Docker can drive the whole machine. This guide installs the free Community Edition with two commands and gets you through the first-login window. It then tours the screens you will use most and covers the hardening that belongs in the install rather than after it.</p>
