Guide

A field guide to everything here — grouped by what you're actually trying to do, with a concrete example for each tool and a button that opens it.

Running here in the page — the same app the desktop opens.

This desktop has a lot of tools, and a wall of icons doesn't tell you which one to reach for. The Guide organises them by real task — ship and run a service, debug and inspect, work with data, prepare media, build and experiment, documents and diagrams — and for each tool says what it's for, where it earns its place, and shows a short, real example you can copy: an actual nginx block, a SQLite GROUP BY, a Graphviz graph, a named-group regex.

Every entry has an Open button that launches the tool right there, so you can go from 'I need to do X' to doing it in one click. It's the map for the rest of the system.
