It consists of a single container that can run on any Docker for Linux engine. A Docker for Windows version is on its way ! **_Portainer_** allows you to manage your Docker containers, images, volumes, networks and more ! It is compatible with the *standalone Docker* engine and with *Docker Swarm*. ## Demo You can try out the public demo instance: http://demo.portainer.io/ (login with the username **demo** and the password **tryportainer**).
