Polaris is the missing UI for Kamal.
Deploy, monitor, and roll back production Kamal apps without opening your terminal.
Limited-time launch pricing. One license activates up to three Macs.
All-in-one Kamal workspace.
These are the features Polaris actually ships as a native Mac app: project discovery, deploy controls, container health, live logs, server metrics, audit history, and commit-aware rollbacks.
- Open Kamal projects
- Point Polaris at a folder with config/deploy.yml or deploy.yml. The macOS app parses service name, roles, hosts, accessories, and SSH settings, then restores saved projects with security-scoped bookmarks.
- Run Kamal commands
- Deploy, redeploy, cancel a running command, or roll back from the toolbar. Output streams from kamal deploy, kamal redeploy, and kamal rollback while containers refresh during the run.
- Inspect containers
- Server snapshots read Docker state over SSH, showing running and stopped containers, image versions, labels, ports, roles, and hosts in one view.
- Follow live logs
- Select a container and follow timestamped docker logs over SSH, with fallback log loading through Kamal when Docker output is not usable.
- Monitor server load
- CPU, memory, storage, and load average are pulled alongside each server snapshot, so deploy work and operational signals stay together.
- Check health resources
- Polaris compares expected Kamal roles and accessories against discovered containers and marks resources healthy, stopped, missing, or warning.
- Review config and activity
- The app keeps project config, kamal audit output, and stored deployment events visible with Git branch, commit, status, exit code, and command output.
- Roll back by commit
- Rollback candidates come from Kamal containers or image versions, then get enriched with Git commit subject, author, date, source, and full hash before confirmation.
Run deployments from the app.
Start a Kamal deploy, keep the live command output visible, and stay in the same operational context while it runs.
Stream logs where the project already is.
Open a container, follow output, and keep server load in view without changing tools.
Choose the version to roll back to.
Polaris presents available deployed commits as a clear choice, including author, time, image, and commit identifier.
EUR 20. Three Macs.
The star Kamal steers by.
Kamal is named for the ancient navigation tool sailors used to keep course by the Pole Star. Polaris takes its name from that fixed point: the steady native UI for keeping Kamal deployments on course.
