View, manage, and diagnose containers within Visual Studio.

The Visual Studio Container Tools Extensions (Preview) are intended to extend the container tooling already in Visual Studio 2019 with the goal of aiding container developers in building and diagnosing their containerized applications. The new extension adds a new Containers tools window to Visual Studio and provides the following capabilities:

  • List containers on local machine
  • Start, Stop & Remove containers
  • View, Stream & Search container logs
  • View file system in running containers
  • Open files from a running container
  • Inspect port mappings & environment variables
  • Open a terminal window into a running container

Our goal is to make working with containers a great experience in Visual Studio 2019 and we have many ideas for the Containers tool window. We want to hear from you, and we hope you can share your comments and suggestions on how we can make our tools work better for you. Do this by opening a new issue at: https://github.com/Microsoft/DockerTools/issues
