The recently imposed "must be logged in" restriction is a response to increased bot traffic on the site. This affects search, commits, and vuxml pages.
Search engines are not blocked. Try using "site:www.freshports.org" and your search terms.
After the ports freeze to fix some stuff, the freeze is over. I have some work to do before FreshPorts can start processing commits again before it can start processing again. I've created an issue for that.

Description:
fjord is a web management interface and daemon for running OCI container applications natively on FreeBSD, as Compose stacks. Delivered as a single self-contained binary with an embedded web UI, it manages stack lifecycles, storage, networks and application catalogs using standard compose.yaml and .env files directly on the filesystem with zero database lock-in. Features: - Dual-engine runtime: orchestrate stacks via Podman (with ocijail) or native FreeBSD jails via AppJail (appjail-director). - Filesystem source of truth: stacks are plain directories containing standard compose.yaml and .env files. - Workload adoption: convert existing standalone containers or jails into managed Compose stacks in place. - Automated host diagnostics: pre-flight checks verify engine binaries, API sockets, and PF firewall anchors with copyable fixes. - Integrated application catalog for one-click stack deployments.

sysutils/fjord: New port: Web UI for managing container compose stacks

fjord is a web management interface and daemon for running OCI container
applications natively on FreeBSD, as Compose stacks. Delivered as a single
self-contained binary with an embedded web UI, it manages stack lifecycles,
storage, networks and application catalogs using standard compose.yaml and
.env files directly on the filesystem with zero database lock-in.

Features:
- Dual-engine runtime: orchestrate stacks via Podman (with ocijail) or
  native FreeBSD jails via AppJail (appjail-director).
- Filesystem source of truth: stacks are plain directories containing
  standard compose.yaml and .env files.
- Workload adoption: convert existing standalone containers or jails into
  managed Compose stacks in place.
- Automated host diagnostics: pre-flight checks verify engine binaries,
  API sockets, and PF firewall anchors with copyable fixes.
- Integrated application catalog for one-click stack deployments.
