I created a vanilla Wiki.js project using the template.
However it looks like the Wiki.js part cannot connect to Postgres, even though it looks like both deployed successfully.
Please help!

According to the Wiki.js deploy logs:

If you deployed the template as is, it may be missing required environment variables. Evidently, the port is Nan (missing), while the app is expected a valid port number.
You're gonna want to set the required environment variables for it: DB_TYPE (postgres), DB_HOST (corresponding env var from your Postgres service variables), DB_USER (same, from Postgres variables), DB_PORT (same), and DB_PASS (same).
