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.

Two reasons the back button was unreliable:
1. The very first history entry (the URL the user landed on) had
state: null because handleInitialRoute() called navigate(path,
false), and the pushState branch only ran when addToHistory=true.
When the user later pushState'd forward and then hit back, the
popstate handler's guard "e.state && e.state.route" was false on
the initial entry, so it silently did nothing — back appeared
broken. Now navigate() replaceState's the current entry whenever
addToHistory=false, so the initial entry (and any back-compat
URL rewrite) always carries its route. The popstate handler also
now falls back to window.location when state.route is missing,
so third-party history manipulation can't break us.
2. Open SSE streams (LiveSystem, taskEventBus, services-manager log
tails) block the browser's back-forward cache. Without BFCache,
back has to fully re-mount the page instead of restoring it
instantly the way Amazon/GitHub feel. Now pagehide closes every
live bus we own, and pageshow(persisted=true) reopens them when
the page is restored from BFCache. Log tails aren't auto-resumed
— Resume overlay handles that if the user comes back to a
services tab.
Public surface added: LiveSystem.pause()/resume() and
ServicesManager.pauseStreams(). TaskEventBus already had stop()/
start(). The legacy-URL rewrite in handleAppDetail also now
replaceState's with { route: canonical } instead of {} so the
stamp is consistent across all internal history updates.

Adds /api/system/stream — a Server-Sent Events feed driven by a single
per-process ticker that reads /proc directly and splices in the latest
host-side metrics.json each second. Subscribers share the connection so
N open tabs cost one ticker, and the ticker pauses entirely when nobody
is listening.
Frontend gets a singleton LiveSystem EventSource manager with auto-
reconnect, Page-Visibility integration (closes on tab hide), and last-
sample replay for late subscribers. Admin -> System gauges and the
dashboard memory + disk tile now tick at 1 Hz; trend charts and the
per-app table keep their 30 s poll because the underlying files only
regenerate once a minute.
Also adds /api/system/history as a thin range-query wrapper over the
existing 24 h JSON ring buffer — the binary ring backend will slot in
behind it in the next phase without changing the response shape.

Same class of bug as the topbar partial: icon and data-file references were
relative (icons/apps/x.svg, data/apps/...), so on deep path routes (/app/<name>,
/admin/config/x) the browser resolved them against the route dir and the SPA
catch-all served index.html with HTTP 200 instead of 404 — broken images and
silently-wrong JSON.
Make every reference absolute (anchored on the quote/backtick so already-absolute
/icons paths are untouched):
- JS: all icons/ and data/ literals + templates across components/utils/system
- html/topbar.html: logo <img>
- generators: webui_config.sh and webui_create_app_categories.sh now emit
/icons/... into apps.json / apps-categories.json (regenerated on install)
- updated the two icon-path comments to match

Path-based routes (e.g. /app/<name>) made the relative fetch('html/topbar.html')
resolve to /app/html/topbar.html. The SPA catch-all returns index.html with HTTP
200 instead of 404, so response.ok passed and index.html got injected as the
topbar, leaving #nav-app-center absent -> 'Nav element not found' in setActiveNav.
Make the topbar fetch and the loadConfig fetch absolute, and switch the remaining
relative topbar nav hrefs (index/dashboard/tasks .html) to absolute paths so the
SPA click interceptor routes them instead of doing a real browser navigation.

Convert the remaining sections off the legacy ?= query form to clean paths,
matching the Admin area:
/apps/<category> (was /apps?=<category>)
/app/<name>?tab=&task= (was /app?=<name>&tab=&task=)
/tasks/<category>?task= (was /tasks?=<category>&task=)
/backup/<tab> (was /backup?=<tab>)
Builders updated everywhere (sidebar, dashboard, notifications, tasks, apps,
app tabs, task-actions, setup watcher); parsers now read the resource from the
path with the legacy ?= kept as a fallback so old links/bookmarks still work
(server already serves index.html at any depth). Route table gains /apps* and
orders it before /app* (since '/apps' startsWith '/app'); active-nav and
config/apps data-loading recognise the new paths.
Tab/task remain ordinary query params (modifiers, not the primary resource).

Replace the Admin area's ?= query URLs with clean, hierarchical paths that
mirror the breadcrumb:
/admin -> Overview
/admin/config/<category>-> Config / <category>
/admin/tools/ssh-access -> Tools / SSH Access
New /admin (+ /admin*) SPA route -> handleAdmin, which parses the path via the
shared window.adminPath / window.adminCategoryFromPath helpers and renders
through the existing ConfigManager. Legacy /config, /config?=<x> and /ssh now
redirect into the matching /admin path, so old links/bookmarks keep working
(server already serves index.html for any depth). Sidebar, Admin Overview,
dashboard link and top-nav now build /admin paths; active-nav + config data
loading recognise /admin across spa.js, topbar.js, router.js, data-loader.js.
Scope: Admin area only — /app, /apps, /tasks, /backup keep their existing ?=
URLs.

Add a reusable Dismissible helper that persists 'hide this permanently' state server-side in data/ui-state.json via the existing authenticated /read-file + /write-file endpoints. It's a direct file write — no task is created (nothing in the task manager) and no system scan runs — so it sidesteps the heavyweight config_update path entirely and works across browsers/devices. The backup config-backup warning now dismisses through Dismissible instead of localStorage; any future notice can opt in with Dismissible.isDismissed(id)/dismiss(id).

Surface when LibrePortal is behind upstream and let users update from the
WebUI, reusing the proven git-update path instead of reinventing it.
Detection (host): webuiSystemUpdateCheck writes
frontend/data/system/update_status.json from a throttled git fetch +
behind-count + VERSION compare, off the existing per-minute
`webui generate system` cron. A new /VERSION file is the canonical version.
Display (frontend): update-notifier.js/.css render a global topbar badge
(every page) and a dashboard banner (prominent when behind, subtle "up to
date" with a manual check otherwise), plus a details panel.
Actions go through the task pipeline:
- `libreportal update apply` -> webuiRunUpdate (non-interactive: guards,
forced check, gitPerformUpdate, then dockerInstallApp libreportal)
- `libreportal update check` -> forced recheck
gitFolderResetAndBackup's body is extracted into gitPerformUpdate (no exit)
so the WebUI path can reuse it; the interactive CLI flow is unchanged.
Detection JSON verified against the repo (up-to-date and behind cases).
webuiRunUpdate's re-clone + redeploy still needs validation on a live host.
The latest-version source is git for now and is the single swap point for
get.libreportal.org later — the JSON contract and frontend stay unchanged.
