Description
I think if docker have a TUI(Text User Interface) interface, It's be more useful.
So I developed the TUI client for docker it's name docui.
I think that will be more useful to incorporate docui into the standard CLI.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the linked docui project and the Docker CLI repository to understand the proposed TUI scope. Identify which resource operations should be supported and how the interface would fit into the standard CLI. Done should include an agreed integration design and implementation scope, but the issue does not name files or tests.
