The step asked one question — pick a destination, or "not now" — while the
system underneath already had a full location model: eight backend types, per
location engine, path mode, credentials and retention, and a generated
locations.json carrying all of it. None of that was reachable during setup, so a
second destination, or even seeing where the first one points, meant finding the
Backup page afterwards.
Now it mirrors the Storage step — the choice above, the list below:
Backups Automatic — daily, on a schedule | Manual
Destinations Local disk [default] /libreportal-backups/1 [Edit]
+ Add destination
Automatic/Manual needed a setting, because there was no off switch:
crontabSetupBackupScheduler installed the entry unconditionally. CFG_BACKUP_MODE
is explicit rather than overloading "empty schedule", so it reads properly in
the config editor too, and Manual REMOVES an entry that is already installed
rather than merely declining to add one — otherwise answering Manual changes
nothing. The schedule itself is left alone, so switching back restores the time
the user picked.
Destinations are seeded from locations.json, so the default one is shown and
editable instead of being discovered later, and only entries the user actually
added or changed are submitted. A destination on the same disk as the app data
says so on the card rather than in a paragraph under the step.
Remote destinations are what the secret channel was for. The wizard payload is
base64'd into a task's command string and tasks are recorded world-readable, so
a password is POSTed to /api/setup/secret, which writes it where only the
manager can read it and returns an opaque reference; the reference travels in
the payload and setup_apply redeems it once, at the write. A reference that
cannot be redeemed leaves the password alone and says so, rather than blanking
it.
Verified in the browser on a clean install: the step renders both modes, lists
the existing destination at its resolved path, and the add dialog swaps between
local and remote fields. scripts/dev/lp-backup-setup-test covers the apply side,
including that what reaches the config is the secret and never the reference.

Adds the wizard step for importing existing apps, so the common case is
answerable in the WebUI rather than only from a terminal.
Path-based, not upload, and that is the design rather than a shortcut. A
.lpapp is a plain tarball and the file is already on the server, so
nothing secret crosses into the browser — which is exactly why this can
live in the WebUI when the encrypted-repository restore cannot (§4.1).
Accepts a single file or a folder of them.
Check first, then accept: the step enqueues `app import-check --publish`,
polls the document it writes, and renders one row per file with its
verdict — ready, a warning (its old storage location is gone, so it will
land on the default), or a refusal (already installed, no longer shipped,
will not fit). Refused rows are shown greyed with the reason rather than
hidden, and cannot be selected.
setupApplyConfig re-runs appImport's own checks rather than trusting the
payload: the machine can change between the check and the apply, and the
list arrives from a browser.
The backend route shell-quotes the path — it reaches a command line and
is user input.
Verified: the step renders as "Step 6 of 7", and the underlying check was
proven against real .lpapp files (correct app name from the tar, size
from the manifest, warning for a missing storage location, refusals for
an already-installed app and a non-export).

New containers/trivy app (aquasec/trivy in server mode, private API port,
docker socket + cache volume) in the security,recommended categories, plus
placement in the setup wizard recommended step, the server-side install
tier after crowdsec, and the CLI first-install prompt. The updater's CVE
scan (design doc P4) will gate on this app being installed; §5 of the
design doc updated to record the app-based decision.

Three coupled defects in the first-run wizard flow, all surfacing as
"it said complete but nothing was set up":
1. Zero-app installs sailed through. With no apps ticked, setup was just
config+finalize, finished in seconds having installed nothing, and
fast-forwarded to an empty App Center. Add a self-contained in-wizard
confirm ("Install with no apps?") before submitting. Can't reuse the
shared confirmation-dialog component — it isn't loaded this early in
boot — so the dialog is rendered by the wizard itself and mounted on
<body> to escape the aurora surface's FX-stacking rule.
2. finalize declared success unconditionally. It never inspected the
per-app install tasks, so a failed app still yielded "your install is
ready" + a redirect. Pass the setup group id to `setup finalize`; it
now rolls up the group's app-install task results and logs a clear
partial/failed verdict. The WebUI completion watcher gates the welcome
toast + App Center hand-off on the whole group succeeding, not just on
finalize completing — a failed app now keeps the user on the tasks page
with an error toast instead of a false all-clear.
3. Setup task count was confusing (banner "of 2" while the page listed 3).
On dev/git installs the topbar's dev-mode auto-enable raced the wizard's
own CFG_DEV_MODE write and spawned a second, un-grouped config-update
task mid-setup. Skip that auto-enable while a setup handoff is active
(the wizard already persists CFG_DEV_MODE); it runs on the next load if
still needed.

Adds the install-time Beginner/Advanced choice the user described, with
the linked dev-mode escape hatch and global body-class machinery that
any surface can hang advanced/dev-only DOM off.
Three-tier mental model, two flags in the data model:
Beginner default. nothing extra shown.
Advanced .lp-advanced DOM revealed; advanced wizard steps shown
Adv+Dev .lp-dev DOM also revealed; dev-only fields visible
Linking rule (enforced inside LpUi):
- enabling dev auto-enables advanced (dev w/o advanced is incoherent)
- disabling advanced auto-disables dev
Wire shape:
CFG_INSTALL_LEVEL beginner | advanced (general_basic)
CFG_DEV_MODE existing, unchanged behaviour
window.LpUi.{advanced,dev} {get(), set(), apply()}
localStorage keys lp.ui.advanced, lp.ui.dev, lp.ui.seeded
body classes lp-ui--advanced, lp-ui--dev
events lp-ui-advanced-changed, lp-ui-dev-changed
global CSS gates body:not(.lp-ui--advanced) .lp-advanced { hide }
body:not(.lp-ui--dev) .lp-dev { hide }
Setup wizard:
- New step 1 "Choose your experience" with Beginner/Advanced cards.
Beginner is preselected so race-through gets the safe default.
- Picking a level updates totalSteps live (4 for beginner, 5 for
advanced) so the progress bar reflects the choice.
- Metrics step (Prometheus + Grafana) is gated to Advanced — beginner
never sees it, never gets asked, never installs them by accident.
- Submit payload now carries install_level; setup-routes.js validates
it against the enum (beginner|advanced).
- scripts/setup/setup_apply.sh writes it to CFG_INSTALL_LEVEL via
updateConfigOption.
- On submit, LpUi.advanced.set is called immediately so the next
surface (running-tasks page) is already in the right mode — no
refresh needed.
WebUI bootstrap:
- js/utils/lp-ui.js loads first thing in index.html (before any other
bootstrap) so body.lp-ui--advanced is applied pre-paint — no FOUC
of advanced content on a fresh tab.
- On first run, seeds lp.ui.advanced from CFG_INSTALL_LEVEL.
Subsequent loads honour the user's per-browser override.
- Mirrors CFG_DEV_MODE → lp.ui.dev on the seed pass.
Dev-mode unlock:
- Existing 10-click LibrePortal-logo easter egg unchanged.
- NEW: same 10-click unlock on the Advanced toggle (in services-manager).
Reuses the countdown-toast pattern; on the 10th click delegates to
the topbar's _setDevMode so there's one canonical setter and the
config_update task path stays singular.
- TopbarComponent now exposes its instance as window.topbar so the
toggle's tap handler can reach _setDevMode.
- topbar._setDevMode also calls LpUi.dev.set(enabled) so the body
class flips immediately (no reload needed to see dev-only DOM).
Convention rolled out:
- Services tab's .service-rich panel was already gated on
body.lp-ui--advanced.
- .lp-advanced / .lp-dev are now first-class hide classes any
component can tag DOM with — see style.css globals.
