FAQ

Can I adapt this to my situation?

Yes — treat the steps as the skeleton. Keep the verification steps; customize everything else.

How do I maintain the result?

Add the final maintenance step to a calendar. Ten minutes monthly prevents most regressions.

What if I get stuck?

Return to the last verified checkpoint and redo the failing step slowly. If it still fails, search for the exact error or symptom rather than the general task.
