What services to only host Auth?

Hey!
I have used Ente Auth offline on my phone for a while and i love the interface / how its working! But now the time has come to set up my own sync server, and i personally feel that the documentation about this is lacking quite a few things.

First of all, how do i run JUST a Auth server (if thats even possible)? I used the quick start script to setup my server but that did automatically install everything needed for Photos, Albums etc. (which i don't currently need since i'm using another solution for that) and its consuming so much unnecessary resources of my homelab. I have tried to find documentation about which services / containers are needed for which applications (in my case Auth), but i cant find anything.

So, what services do i actually need to do this? Would it be possible to separate the installation of Auth and Photos in the documentation (or just create an individual installation for them both)? And create sample compose files for JUST running the Auth server?
