## Portainer CE on Ubuntu 24.04 by cloudimg
Portainer CE is the open source web UI for managing Docker, Docker Swarm, and Kubernetes from a single dashboard — browse containers, images, volumes, networks, and stacks; deploy from templates or Compose YAML; attach to container shells; stream logs; all from a browser. The cloudimg image installs Docker Engine 27.x from the official Docker apt repo, runs the latest Portainer CE container with a persistent portainer_data volume, and exposes the UI over HTTPS on port 9443 (with HTTP fallback on 9000).
