Squoosh is the ultimate image optimizer that allows you to compress and compare images with different codecs in your browser. Smaller images mean faster load times. Squoosh can reduce file size and maintain high quality. Open your image, inspect the differences, then save instantly. Feeling adventurous? Adjust the settings for even smaller files. Worried about privacy? With Squoosh images never leave your device since Squoosh does all the work locally. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Squoosh on your UGREEN NAS using Docker & Portainer.

💡Note: This guide works perfectly with the latest Squoosh v1.12.0 release.

🟢Please Support My work by Making a Donation. Almost 99,9% of the people that install something using my guides forget to support my work, or just ignore STEP 1. I’ve been very honest about this aspect of my work since the beginning: I don’t run any ADS, I don’t require subscriptions, paid or otherwise, I don’t collect IPs, emails, and I don’t have any referral links from Amazon or other merchants. I also don’t have any POP-UPs or COOKIES. I have repeatedly been told over the years how much I have contributed to the community. It’s something I love doing and have been honest about my passion since the beginning. But I also Need The Community to Support me Back to be able to continue doing this work.

• STEP 8
