FREQUENTLY ASKED

Yes. ActaLog includes a full class scheduling system: gym locations, class templates, recurring schedule slots, and individual sessions with capacity management. Athletes can reserve spots, join waitlists, and receive automatic notifications when a spot opens. Admins sell credit packages (e.g., "10-Class Pack") and track document requirements (waivers, liability forms). Coaches can check in athletes and mark attendance from the Coach Dashboard.

ActaLog has three roles:

• Athlete — Default role. Full workout tracking, class reservations, and leaderboard access.
• Coach — Everything an athlete can do, plus class roster management and check-in capabilities for assigned gyms. Coaches are never subject to subscription restrictions.
• Admin — Full system access including user management, class scheduling configuration, subscription billing, backups, and audit logs.

Yes! ActaLog supports SQLite (default), PostgreSQL, and MySQL/MariaDB. Configure your database by setting DB_DRIVER in your environment variables or docker-compose.override.yml. PostgreSQL is recommended for production deployments.

Check the seeds/ and imports/ directories in the repository. You'll find movements.csv with 182 CrossFit movements and wods.csv with 314 benchmark workouts ready to import.

Absolutely. ActaLog is lightweight and runs on a single-node Docker Compose stack. A $5/month VPS with 1GB RAM is plenty for small communities. SQLite keeps things simple, or use PostgreSQL/MariaDB for larger deployments.

Not currently hosted publicly. The easiest way to try ActaLog is to run the Docker Compose stack locally. It takes about 2 minutes to get running. See the Deploy Guide for quick start instructions.

ActaLog includes built-in backup functionality in the admin panel. You can also export your data as JSON/CSV. For SQLite, back up the database file directly. For PostgreSQL/MariaDB, use standard database backup tools.
