8-screen first-boot installer spec extending Robert's 4-screen
wireframe with the YunoHost-style post-install pattern (domain,
SSL, diagnostic, confirm). Covers:
- Entry point via https://proksi.local with local CA cert install
- Screens S1-S8, each mapped to archinstall config fields or side
effects (SSL cert issuance, DNS delegation, diagnostic gates)
- Data model mapping wizard fields to user_configuration.json +
user_credentials.json
- Locked tech picks with rejected alternatives: Caddy (reverse
proxy), Authentik (SSO), NS delegation (managed gateway DNS),
local CA (HTTPS on proksi.local)
- Open questions for Robert: Backend on/off meaning, local CA vs
Tailscale ACME, UI framework choice, language list, S2 auto-setup
branch behavior

Online research (no hands-on testing yet) covering install flow,
hardware detection, app store UX, reverse proxy/SSL, and common
user complaints for the top 3 competitors.
Key findings: device-aware install wizard and managed gateway/DNS
are both uncontested. Umbrel's PolyForm license and 4+ year refusal
of HTTPS on local UI are direct counter-positioning opportunities.
CasaOS is in maintenance mode (IceWhale moved to ZimaOS).

4-screen wizard flow: welcome/account setup, drive selection with
auto-setup, per-device purpose assignment, network/VPN config.
