This section of the Docker Extension API documentation describes the `NavigationIntents` interface, specifically focusing on methods related to navigating to different container-related views within Docker Desktop. These methods include `viewContainers` (navigating to the containers tab), `viewContainer` (navigating to a specific container), `viewContainerLogs` (navigating to the logs of a specific container), `viewContainerInspect` (navigating to the inspect view of a specific container), and `viewContainerTerminal` (navigating to the terminal of a specific container). All methods return a promise and may fail if the specified container does not exist.
