How to Install Series Troxide on Your Synology NAS

Series Troxide is a simple and Modern Series Tracker. It comes with multiple features that help you track all your favorite TV shows and discover what’s new globally and locally. You can use it to see series based on Networks, web channels and genres, and search for your favourite TV shows. Series Troxide helps you learn when your tracked series are being aired and provides general information of any series (summary, genres, casts, other suggestions based on the series). You can see which of your series are running, which have ended and which are untracked. With Series Troxide you can better follow your TV shows – what season and episode to continue from, how many episodes are unwatched and how much time is required to complete watching all of them. You can also see how many series, seasons and episodes you have watched and how much time you’ve spent watching them in an ordered way. Series Troxide makes it possible for you to carry your series tracking data anywhere. In this step by step guide I will show you how to Install Series Troxide on your Synology NAS with Docker & Portainer.
