## Historique du projet et usages

ctop is a top-like terminal interface for container metrics. It gives a concise, real-time overview of multiple containers and a single-container inspection view.

### Historique du projet

The project appeared publicly as a GitHub-released Go terminal utility in 2017, moving quickly through early 0.x releases. Its README has long described built-in Docker and runC support, with other container and cluster connectors planned.

GitHub release metadata records v0.7.7 in March 2022, while the README advertises direct binary releases and package-manager installs.

### Historique d'adoption

Official installation documentation lists downloadable binaries, Arch packaging, Homebrew, MacPorts, Scoop, and a Docker image. That breadth made ctop easy to try across developer laptops, servers, and container hosts.

### Modes d'utilisation

ctop starts without arguments and reads Docker host variables by default. Users commonly use it to sort, filter, inspect logs, open a single-container view, exec a shell, and save filters or display preferences to the default config path.

### Pourquoi les passionnés de paquets s'y intéressent

ctop is a compact example of the post-Docker wave of single-binary terminal monitoring tools: package managers distribute one executable, Docker users can also run it as a container, and the runtime hooks are mostly environment variables and a small config file.

### Chronologie

- 2017: v0.3 and early 0.x releases published.
- 2018: v0.7 release published.
- 2022: v0.7.7 release published.

### Related projects

- ctop is related to Docker, runC, top-style process monitors, and other terminal tools in the Docker ecosystem.
