    CasaOS is not an operating system and more like a GUI for Docker

    So it’s more like Portainer?

      It’s a web management system for the entire system, including docker containers. So less like Portainer and more like Cockpit with something like Portainer built in. Unlike Portainer the container management is also based around an application marketplace for “one click” deployments with opinionated more-secure defaults. So once installed you’re sort of hiding the regular Linux OS underneath a more beginner friendly appearance of an OS with some guard rails.
