=> You need here to increase all values.
An Special Value is missing in default, because its not needed in every script and need to remove before create an PR:
=> var_verbose="yes|no" - that enable the verbose mode, and you can see all outputs of the Script.
### Value Declarations 📊
Declaration of values:
- APP => Is the name of the application, must match the ct\AppName.sh
- TAGS => These are tags that are displayed in Proxmox (colored dots). Do not use too many!
- var_cpu => Number of used CPU-Cores
- var_ram => Number of used RAM in MB
- var_disk => Number of hard disk capacities used in GB
- var_os => Operating system (alpine | debian | ubuntu)
- var_version => Version of OS (3.20 | 11;12 | 20.04, 22.04, 24.04, 24.10)
- var_unprivileged => 1 = UNPRIVILEGED LXC Container | 0 = PRIVILEGED LXC Container
| Variable | Description | Notes |
|----------|-------------|-------|
| `APP` | Application name | Must match ct\AppName.sh |
| `TAGS` | Proxmox display tags | Limit the number |
| `var_cpu` | CPU cores | Number of cores |
| `var_ram` | RAM | In MB |
| `var_disk` | Disk capacity | In GB |
| `var_os` | Operating system | alpine, debian, ubuntu |
| `var_version` | OS version | e.g., 3.20, 11, 12, 20.04 |
| `var_unprivileged` | Container type | 1 = Unprivileged, 0 = Privileged |
=> Following Values are default by build.func:
- TAGS="community-script" (is default, not need to add this, only new TAGS)
- var_cpu="1"
- var_ram="1024"
- var_disk="4"
- var_unprivileged="1"
- var_verbose="no"
### Default Values 🔨

## Best Practices
## 📋 Best Practices
1. Use `$STD` for commands that should have their output suppressed.
2. Use consistent variable naming (uppercase for global variables).
3. Always quote variables that might contain spaces.
4. Use `-q` flag for quiet operation where available.
5. Use consistent indentation (2 spaces).
6. Include cleanup sections to remove temporary files and packages.
7. Use descriptive message strings in msg_info/msg_ok functions.
