A similar project[1] which is also open source[2] and looks a lot similar.

Hey there ! We have a comparison table on our website: http://portainer.io/portainer-comparison.html

The main advantage against shipyard is that you only need to deploy one container to run Portainer, it's really simple and quick. Shipyard deployment is more complex.

That comparison looks inaccurate. Shipyard does support tagging images. Also will support Swarm [1] mode (and volume/ network support)

Thanks, I will update the comparison table. I did not include 'next' features in the table :)

Have you ever thought about adding support for kvm/QEMU/virsh-based virtual machines as well? I've been looking for a easy to use interface that gives a comprehensive overview of virtual machines as well as containers as I'm often using a mix of both.

At the moment, we are focussed purely on docker containers... Our mantra, focus on one thing and do that one thing better than anyone else

Cockpit [1] too, although that might be a bit more focused on single machine management than on clusters (don't use any of those - so I can't tell for sure)

Well, it seems to cover the same functionality! But there is no windows support and does run in the shell instead of a docker image.
