New versions and changes are documented through GitHub Releases.
Typical base system: On Raspberry Pi usually Raspberry Pi OS (Debian-based); on a PC often Debian or Ubuntu. Package management e.g. via apt — see your distributor’s documentation.
Recommended for music box, photo frame, small home servers and compact learning projects.
On GitHub Releases pick the package for your Pi (e.g. .deb or installer).
Better suited for NAS, larger container setups, several services and heavier scenarios.
Same release page: choose the amd64/desktop artefact when several builds are listed.
Good for quick access to monitoring, backup and services with more performance headroom.
./start.sh python3 -m backend.app npm run tauri:dev
Lightweight setup focused on stability, networking and repeatable updates.
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y sudo systemctl enable piinstaller-backend sudo systemctl start piinstaller-backend
Note: Screenshots are captured from the running app (not mockups). Missing images show a placeholder with the expected filename until exported from Tauri.
Shipped in the theme under assets/screenshots/; align with docs/screenshots/ or frontend/public/docs/screenshots/ in the dev repo.
Setuphelfer is open source and under active development. Recovery and backup mechanisms remain at the centre; releases are documented transparently through GitHub. No roadmap promises, no fixed dates, no automatic updates.
Source code, issues and discussions in the official repository.
Versioned builds with changelog entries and artefacts.
Recent commits, branches and open topics directly in the repo.
For beginners: Raspberry Pi 4/5 or a Linux PC on a current Debian/Ubuntu base.
They describe typical scenarios (Pi vs desktop/Linux PC). Downloads are on the same GitHub release page; pick the matching artefact there.
Check health first, then network/firewall path, then restart services.
In the tutorial area and in the documentation with linked diagnostics.
