DevDock is a local-first Windows workspace for operating software projects without rebuilding context every time you switch. It keeps project folders, saved commands, Docker environments, Git state, run history, health checks, database operations, and security audits together in one desktop app.

Version 1.1 adds a system-wide Ctrl+Shift+K launcher, so you can search and run safe project commands without first opening the main window. A system-tray companion shows active and recent runs plus actions pinned to Today. DevDock can also discover repository-defined Laravel Artisan, Symfony Console, CodeIgniter Spark, Django management, and Rails Rake commands without booting the framework or executing project code. Structured run-time inputs and named presets make variable commands repeatable.

Git workflows remain explicit and inspectable. You can review changed files and textual diffs before a commit, manage remotes with embedded credentials redacted, and switch branches from the project header. Commands that require values, custom shell execution, destructive or production confirmation, or Git push still open the appropriate review step.

A project can represent one repository, a monorepo, or several separately located folders. Each folder keeps its own detection, working directory, generated tasks, and shortcuts. Today collects recent projects and pinned daily workflows, while command history retains the target, timing, exit state, and output of each run.

Database tools cover schema inspection, constrained read-only record lookups, counts, migration review, diagnostics, and confirmed backup operations for SQLite, MySQL/MariaDB, and PostgreSQL. The local, read-only security audit checks registered folders for exposed secrets, private keys, tracked credential files, unsafe permissions, escaping symlinks, and missing lockfiles. Source code is not uploaded, and matched secret values are withheld.

DevDock is available through the Microsoft Store. The free tier supports up to three local projects with core commands, Git, Docker, Project Doctor, and security audits. A one-time Pro purchase unlocks unlimited and multi-folder projects, custom workflows, full history and insights, database tools, SSH transfers, and configuration backup and restore.
