+## What is Portainer?
+
+`Portainer` is a lightweight, powerful container management platform that provides a graphical user interface (GUI) to manage your Docker, Docker Swarm, and Kubernetes environments. It essentially sits on top of your container runtime, allowing you to control complex infrastructure without needing to master the command line.
+
+Portainer provides a very easy to understand user interface for deploying other docker containers. The great thing is, Portainer
+is a container itself, so it should run automatically following setup and allow
+you a nice gui interface for your docker environment via a web browser. I
+particularly love its dashboard because you get a great snapshot of your running
+containers, can easily restart and monitor your containers, but most importantly
+edit and deploy docker-compose files via the "stacks" page.
