What this docs site covers

A practical manual for the viewer today and the platform later.

Local-first viewer

Understand the current app architecture, SQLite pipeline, selective exports, and the local privacy model before you host anything.

Self-hosted packages

Follow the deployment guides for static builds, Cloudflare Pages, Wrangler, and a cleaner hosted copy that only includes the chosen DMs.

Hosted roadmap

Document the future service at archive.aveson.co.uk, including OAuth, Supabase metadata, encrypted storage links, and user-owned archive bundles.
