FAQ

How long does this take?

Most people finish the core steps in one focused session. First-timers should double the estimate and add a break halfway.

Do I need special equipment?

No. The lists above stick to essentials. Upgrade only after the basic version works and you know which limitation actually bothers you.

How do I maintain the result?

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