Daniel Maksymilian Syrnicki 0cad2e05c8 feat(website): download page for the ISO, homepage with download CTA and 3-step how-it-works

- /download/ and /de/download/: big download button, file name, size and
  release date, requirements (64-bit PC, UEFI or BIOS, >=16 GB disk that
  gets erased, USB stick, network cable with internet, second device),
  five install steps (Etcher / Rufus DD mode / dd, boot menu, Secure Boot
  off, proksi.local:5000, wizard, pull stick), checksum + verify commands
  when the release has one, alpha notice, link to all releases
- the release data comes from the Forgejo API at build time
  (partials/release.html): newest release with an .iso asset, falling back
  to params.version if the lookup fails; getresource cache disabled so a
  build never pins an old release
- homepage: status chip follows the latest release, 'Download ISO' primary
  CTA + 'Source code' ghost CTA, numbered how-it-works cards, download band
  before the closer
- releases now upload furtka-<ver>.iso.sha256, and release.yml rebuilds the
  site after publishing so the download page follows each release

Download Furtka

The Furtka installer as an ISO file: write it to a USB stick, start your computer from it, and set up your home server in the browser.

Released

Size

Furtka is **alpha software**: things change and some will break. Install it on a computer whose disk you don't need, and keep a backup of anything important.

The file is served from our Forgejo server (forgejo.sourcegate.online).

What you need

A **64-bit PC** (x86-64) — an old laptop or desktop is fine. Both UEFI and older BIOS computers work.

A disk of **at least 16 GB** for Furtka. **It will be erased completely.**

A **USB stick** with at least 2 GB (also erased).

A **network cable** with internet access — the installer downloads packages, and Wi-Fi isn't set up automatically.

A **second device with a browser** (phone or laptop) on the same network.

How to install

title	body
Write the ISO to a USB stick	Use [balenaEtcher](https://etcher.balena.io/) (Windows, macOS, Linux) or [Rufus](https://rufus.ie/) on Windows — if Rufus asks, pick DD image mode. On Linux you can also use `dd` (replace `/dev/sdX` with your stick — double-check it): ``` sudo dd if={iso} of=/dev/sdX bs=4M status=progress oflag=sync ```

title	body
Start the computer from the stick	Plug in the stick and the network cable, switch the computer on and press the one-time boot menu key (often <kbd>F11</kbd>, <kbd>F12</kbd> or <kbd>Esc</kbd> — it flashes briefly on screen). Pick the USB stick. If the computer refuses to start from it, switch off Secure Boot in the firmware settings.

title	body
Open the installer from another device	After a short while the screen shows an address — usually http://proksi.local:5000, plus the IP address as a fallback. Open it in a browser on your phone or laptop.

title	body
Click through the wizard	Three pages: a name for your server with your username and password, the disk to install on, and a last check. Then the installer downloads and sets everything up.

title	body
Pull the stick, restart, done	When the wizard says so, remove the USB stick and restart. Your server comes up at http://<name>.local — for example http://furtka.local.

Check the download (optional)

Compare the checksum of the file you downloaded with this one:

This release has no published checksum for the ISO yet — future releases include one.
