All right, so let's see how to start using extensions available within Docker Desktop. We wanted to make them easily discoverable. So we've created a marketplace where you can install extensions with a single click. But rather than talking about it, why don't I give you a quick demo.
All right, so here we are in Docker Desktop. You'll see on the left-hand navigation, there's a new section called Add extensions. We can start exploring extensions we've included from our partners by clicking on that button, Add extensions. If you want to learn more about any specific extension that's available, all you have to do is click on the extension itself and you'll see a detailed explanation.
All right, so we're going to get started installing a few and I'm going to pick a few of my favorites. We'll do Disk Usage and Logs Explorer. And see I just had to singly click the extension to install it. All right. Sorry, I got a little click happy there. So let's start with Disk Usage. It's a great way to view how your disk space is used and you can reclaim space in just a few clicks. So let me show you how to do that.
All right, so here you can see my local volumes is at about two gigs and I've got about 15 gigs of images. Now, if I wanted to clean any of these up, all I have to do is click Reclaim Space and select what I wanted to delete. And just hit that delete button and it's as simple as that. Now we're going to move on to Logs Explorer and this is a nice way to be able to access and search your logs across all of your containers. So here we can see I've filtered on all of my containers logs. I can go down to a single container and all I have to do is type in a word. So we'll do start. Maybe I'm looking for all starter bins and that's going to find everything within that container, or all containers that has start in the log itself. So it's as easy as that as well. Lastly, before I leave Docker Desktop, I want to show you a few other links that we have. So if we go back into the marketplace, you're going to see a link up top to give us feedback. We'd really love to hear from you, as well as over here you can find out how to build your own extension and get access to the SDK documentation in the SDK. Alright, now there are plenty more extensions worth checking out, so you might be wondering how to get extensions. It's pretty easy. All you have to do is upgrade to the latest version of Docker Desktop for Mac, Windows or Linux.
Okay, so let's talk about what's next for Docker Extensions. First, we'll be adding more extensions. We've already been working with some new partners and are excited to see what the community will create, so check back often to see if new extensions have been added. Second, we plan to improve the marketplace experience for both developers and publishers. We'll be adding the ability to search for extensions, extension categories and a rating system in the near future. Lastly, we want to hear your ideas for what else we should do. We'll be listening to your feedback ideas from our community Slack channel, in-app feedback and feedback left on the SDK repo. Alright, so wrapping up, here are a few links to resources I mentioned.
