What is Zenithal?

Zenithal is a fast, lightweight Docker and Kubernetes GUI for macOS. Built natively with SwiftUI, it uses ~200MB of RAM compared to Docker Desktop's 2GB+. Features include a visual Docker Compose builder, real-time container monitoring, built-in CVE security scanning with Trivy and Grype, full Kubernetes cluster management, 65+ deployment templates, and a visual service dependency graph. Available as a free tier with core container management, or Pro ($7/mo) for advanced features. On-device AI Assist (Apple Intelligence): explain failed Docker builds and triage Trivy/Grype security scans, running entirely on your Mac. Requires macOS 26 with Apple Intelligence; the deterministic tools work without it.
