Barely

Install Barely

Two commands in Terminal. The 30-day trial needs no account, email or credit card.

macOS

brew install barelyvm/tap/barely
barely setup

Apple Silicon · macOS 14 Sonoma or later · Homebrew

On an Intel Mac? Barely runs on Apple Silicon only.

What setup does

  • Checks for the docker command and asks before each change.
  • Puts the app in your Applications folder.
  • Points docker at Barely. Your compose files don't change.
  • Starts the trial with one click in your browser.

Before you start

The docker command

Barely needs it. If you don't have it:

brew install docker docker-compose docker-buildx

arm64 images

arm64 images only, no Rosetta. An image built only for Intel and AMD (amd64) won't run.

Going back

barely uninstall

Puts docker back the way it was. Your images and volumes stay.

Barely is $99 once.
