Visual Editor for Docker Compose Configuration Files
A powerful visual tool for creating, editing, and managing Docker Compose configurations. Build complex multi-container applications without writing YAML manually.
The Docker Compose Builder provides a visual interface for creating and managing Docker Compose configurations. Whether you're setting up a simple web server or a complex microservices architecture, this tool makes it easy.
Tip: You can also upload an existing docker-compose.yml file to edit it visually. Click the Upload button to get started.
The Docker Compose Builder interface is divided into three main panels:
View and manage all services in your compose file. Add, duplicate, or delete services.
Configure the selected service with all available Docker Compose options.
Live preview of the generated docker-compose.yml file.
Add, duplicate, and manage Docker services in your compose configuration.
Click the Add button to create a new service. Each service requires at minimum:
Quickly create similar services by duplicating existing ones. Useful for:
Remove services using the delete button. Note:
Click on any service in the list to view and edit its configuration in the center panel.
Configure each service using the four configuration tabs: Basic, Network, Storage, and Advanced.
host:containerhost_path:container_pathConfigure global Docker Compose settings including version, networks, and volumes.
Select the Docker Compose file format version:
Define custom networks for inter-container communication:
Create named volumes for persistent storage:
Start quickly with pre-configured templates for common Docker Compose setups.
Complete WordPress setup with MySQL database and network configuration.
Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP development environment with phpMyAdmin.
MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js full-stack application setup.
Nginx as a reverse proxy with SSL support configuration.
PostgreSQL database with Redis cache for high-performance apps.
Complete monitoring stack with Prometheus metrics and Grafana dashboards.
Elasticsearch, Logstash, and Kibana for log management and analysis.
Next.js application with PostgreSQL database for full-stack development.
Tip: Templates are fully customizable. Load a template and modify any configuration to match your specific needs.
Work with existing docker-compose files or export your configuration.
Upload existing docker-compose.yml files to edit visually:
Get your configuration in multiple ways:
Once you have your docker-compose.yml file:
# Start all services docker-compose up -d # View logs docker-compose logs -f # Stop all services docker-compose down # Rebuild after changes docker-compose up -d --build
Key Docker Compose concepts and how they're handled by the builder.
Each service defines a container to run. The builder manages all service properties including image, ports, environment, volumes, and more.
Custom networks enable communication between containers. The builder supports bridge, host, overlay, and none network drivers.
Named volumes provide persistent storage. Configure drivers (local, NFS) and external flag for advanced use cases.
Control container restart behavior: no (never restart), always, on-failure, or unless-stopped.
The depends_on directive ensures services start in the correct order, with optional health condition support.
Custom health checks verify container health with configurable interval, timeout, retries, and start period.
Set up complete development environments with hot-reloading, databases, and services without manual configuration.
Generate consistent docker-compose files for testing environments across your CI/CD pipeline.
Create example Docker Compose configurations for project documentation and onboarding guides.
Understand Docker Compose structure visually without memorizing YAML syntax.
Rapidly spin up complex multi-container applications for prototyping and proof-of-concept work.
Import and modernize existing docker-compose files with the visual editor.
