## Project history and usage

Dev Cockpit is a terminal user interface for monitoring and maintaining development machines, with modules for system metrics, package managers, Docker, processes, services, diagnostics, logs, and security checks.

### Project history

The official documentation presents Dev Cockpit as a macOS and Linux tool, with Apple Silicon requirements called out for macOS and source builds from the caioricciuti/dev-cockpit repository.

### Adoption history

The project documents a curl-based installer, manual binary installation, source builds, and Homebrew package-manager integration in the supplied package facts.

### How it is used

Users run devcockpit for the full TUI or subcommands such as status, diag, ps, services, security, cleanup list, and cleanup empty-trash.

### Why package nerds care

It matters to package-manager users because it detects and surfaces Homebrew, npm, Docker, and development services from a single terminal dashboard.
