Wiki

The wiki will be available right in the browser when you have the software installed.

Don't worry about the _book folder, as that contains the generated html wiki.

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/JakobST1n/Luxcena-Neo/master/bin/install.sh && chmod +x install.sh && sudo ./install.sh && rm install.sh
