Preflight checks

Treat this page as a planning asset, not proof that your local environment is ready.

The manual is generated from source-linked project files and Doramagic validation signals.
Community evidence warnings stay visible instead of being converted into marketing claims.
This English page is indexable because the locale quality gate passed and explicit English index approval is enabled.
Use the upstream repository as the final authority for installation commands, license, and version-specific behavior.
