I'm 14 and I Built an Open-Source Visual Docker Architect & Port Conflict Resolver
If you've ever set up a self-hosted Homelab or deployed a multi-tier production stack on a Linux VPS, you know the frustration: bash Error response from daemon: driver failed programming external connectivity on endpoint jellyfin: Bind for 0.0.0.0:8096 failed: port is already allocated You open your docker-compose.yml, manually cross-reference 5 different service definitions, search for port…
Fourteen-year-old Alperen from Bursa, Turkey, developed XIVIZLEY, an open-source visual web architecture suite for Docker and Homelab systems. The platform addresses the frustration of manually configuring Docker containers and resolving port conflicts. XIVIZLEY operates entirely in the browser, allowing users to connect popular open-source modules and choose from curated production templates via a visual drag-and-drop interface.
The platform flags port collisions and suggests alternative ports in real-time. XIVIZLEY generates standardized docker-compose.yml specifications and a single-command SSH script, ensuring zero server agents and data privacy. The project won the TÜBİTAK 2204-A High School Students Research Projects Competition, and the core platform is released under the MIT License.
Users can self-host the platform locally by cloning the GitHub repository and running a Docker command. Alperen invites feedback on edge cases in port collision handling and suggestions for new services or Homelab stacks.
