- The `fly` CLI [already installed](https://fly.io/docs/getting-started/installing-flyctl/) and authenticated on your machine

## Create your app

```bash

# You can change this to any region from https://fly.io/docs/reference/regions/

REGION="ewr"

RANDOM_SUFFIX="$(head /dev/urandom | tr -dc 'a-z0-9' | head -c 6 ; echo '')"

APP_NAME="syncthing-${RANDOM_SUFFIX}"

fly apps create --name "${APP_NAME}"

```

## Create a persistent volume

```bash

VOLUME_NAME="syncthing" # Must match fly.toml.

SIZE_IN_GB=3

fly volumes create "${VOLUME_NAME}" \

  --region "${REGION}" \

  --size "${SIZE_IN_GB}" \

  --yes

```

## Deploy

```bash

fly deploy

```
