I'm not sure what's the best way to do this on Unraid, since docker-compose it's just a single binary, shouldn't we just install as part of the plugin installation?

It should be as simple as:

curl -L https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-Linux-x86_64 --output /usr/local/bin/docker-compose
chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose

Hmmm, I'm really not a friend running compose on Unraid because, well Unraid is a little different and it has it's own app plugin (CommunityApplication).

Wouldn't it be better to reach out to Squid on the forums or even here on GitHub and create corresponding templates and point to the issue tracker from GoW?
I think not that tech savvy users will really appreciate that move.

Closing as obsolete. The discussion was moved to #17 in 2022, and the current plugin does not install docker-compose directly; it requires the Compose Manager plugin and refuses install when it is missing.
