Windlass: The Panel You Can Delete

Field notes

Windlass places Compose files on disk and uses the standard docker compose command rather than replacing the underlying runtime. Its control surface covers deployment modes including Git, webhook, template, and rollback workflows, alongside logs, browser terminals, metrics, and resource editing. The page says Caddy handles HTTPS and that route changes are limited to Windlass-tagged objects. It also emphasizes a single Go binary, no Redis or job runner, and an idle footprint below 40 MiB.
