Id like to install [SparkyFitness](https://github.com/CodeWithCJ/SparkyFitness) but I have never successfully installed a container that's not available in the community apps. This one is a little more complex as it requires a specific postgres db too. Any guides on how I can accomplish the install? Or should I wait until someone gets it added to the Community Apps?

Thanks!

I struggled with this in my first attempt, please share what worked for you! Thanks

That worked for me. Customize it to fit your data

I used it in Docker Compose on Unraid, and it worked.

It comes from the Synology NAS guide available here:
