Guides

These guides walk through common tasks from start to finish, using only commands that exist in Abstrax today. Each one assumes you have Abstrax installed (see Installation) and that you can use sudo.

Guide	What it covers
Creating a user	Add a user, set a shell, grant sudo, manage groups
Adding SSH access	Add an authorised key and harden the SSH server
Installing packages	Update lists, install, upgrade, and remove packages
Creating a project	Set up an nginx-backed web project and add a certificate
Managing cron jobs	Schedule, list, and modify cron jobs
Managing daemons	Run long-lived processes under Supervisor

Before making changes, you can preview most commands with --dry-run, and you can inspect the system first with abstrax doctor.
