|
1. Download the ISO for your architecture (x86_64 or ARM64)
|
|
2. Flash to USB drive with Balena Etcher or `dd`
|
|
3. Boot from USB on target hardware
|
|
4. Follow the automated installer
|
|
5. Access the web UI at `http://<device-ip>`
|
|
6. Set your password and start the onboarding wizard
|
|
|
|
### Supported Hardware

|
| **x86_64** | Intel NUC, mini PCs, any 64-bit PC | 4GB RAM, 32GB storage |
|
|
| **ARM64** | Raspberry Pi 5, ARM64 SBCs | 4GB RAM, 32GB storage |
|
|
|
|
**Recommended**: 8GB+ RAM, 1TB+ NVMe SSD (for full Bitcoin node)
|
|

|
## Development
|
|
|
|
### Prerequisites
|
|
- Rust stable toolchain
|
|
- Node.js 20+
|
|
- Linux dev server (Debian 12) for backend builds
|
|
|
|
### Frontend Development
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cd neode-ui
|
|
npm install
|
|
npm start # Dev server on http://localhost:8100
|
|
npm run type-check # TypeScript validation
|
|
npm test # Run 515+ tests
|
|
npm run build # Production build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Deploy to Server
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
./scripts/deploy-to-target.sh --live # Deploy to dev server
|
|
./scripts/deploy-to-target.sh --both # Deploy to both servers
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Build ISO
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
ssh archipelago@<server>
|
|
cd ~/archy/image-recipe
|
|
sudo ./build-auto-installer-iso.sh # x86_64
|
|
sudo ARCH=arm64 ./build-auto-installer-iso.sh # ARM64
|
|
```
|
|
