I've been migrating my installations over to Linux systems recently, and I've initially installed Calibre-Web using one of the Docker images. That seems pretty good, but there's a couple spots I'm fuzzy on:

Do you also install Calibre typically, to handle whatever things Calibre-Web doesn't?
If I install them both, do I need to be careful not to run them at the same time (mostly concerned about simultaneous access to the database).
I think I need to install Calibre if for no other reason then to get the converter, as the image I used (linuxserver/calibre-web) doesn't seem to have it included.

I think that's all my questions off the top of my head.
Thanks!
