Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

Common questions
Do I have to build MinIO from source for a self-hosted AppFlowy Cloud setup?
Yes. The MinIO community edition is source-only and no longer provides pre-compiled binary releases, so install from source or build a Docker image.
Can the AppFlowy MinIO component be deployed with Docker Compose?
The MinIO documentation lists pages for deploying AIStor as a container and for distributed AIStor on Docker Compose.
What caused MinIO errors in a reported AppFlowy YunoHost installation?
The YunoHost thread reports AppFlowy permission and MinIO errors after a failed installation and suggests a wrong domain setup may be the cause.
Does MinIO licensing restrict commercial AppFlowy deployments?
MinIO is under AGPLv3, and commercial or proprietary usage, including repackaging or reselling services, is at your own risk. AIStor includes enterprise licensing for production workloads.
Can MinIO retain older AppFlowy file snapshots or schedule cleanup?
The documentation lists object versioning, object lifecycle management, automatic expiration, and object tiering.
