- Make first wizard steps for router configuration and Internet connection type private. Since they run after the admin user page, the steps can run for logged in users. - Add option to the Internet connection type wizard, to let the user say that they don't know the type. This allows them to have a stress-free first setup experience. The option can act as if they have don't have public IP address at all. This is an extension of the proposed user experience. - Implement class based views for simplicity. - Update various IDs for consistency (even though other IDs in the networks module don't conform). - Iron out inconsistent terminology. Setup vs Configuration, Help vs. Wizard, etc. Tests performed: - Run first boot wizard from the beginning. Notice that both the wizard steps appear properly after the user login step (without permission denied problems). When not logged in, accessing the wizard steps with URL should redirect to login page. - During first boot wizard, select 'Skip this step' in both the steps after selecting non-default options. Values set should be default options as confirmed from networks page. - During first boot wizard, select non-default values, the values should be set properly as confirmed from networks page. - From the networks page select each value of the wizard. The option should get saved properly. - In case of Internet connection type, when the wizard values changes, the networks page should reflect the value properly. This should also show properly after skipping the step during first boot. - During first boot, the default value for Internet connection type should be 'I don't know' and router configuration should be 'Not configured'.

FreedomBox Service (Plinth)
The core functionality and web front-end of FreedomBox.
Description
FreedomBox is a community project to develop, design and promote personal servers running free software for private, personal communications. It is a networking appliance designed to allow interfacing with the rest of the Internet under conditions of protected privacy and data security. It hosts applications such as blog, wiki, website, social network, email, web proxy and a Tor relay, on a device that can replace your Wi-Fi router, so that your data stays with you.
This module, called FreedomBox Service and also know as Plinth, is the core functionality and web interface to the functions of the FreedomBox. It is extensible and provides various applications of FreedomBox as modules. Each module or application provides simplified user interface to control the underlying functionality. As FreedomBox can act as a wireless router, it is possible to configure networking. It also allows configuration of basic system parameters such as time zone, hostname and automatic upgrades.
You can find more information about FreedomBox Service (Plinth) on the Plinth Wiki page, the FreedomBox Wiki and the FreedomBox Manual.
Getting Started
To have a running FreedomBox, first install Debian (Buster or higher) on a clean machine. Then run:
$ sudo apt install freedombox
Full instructions are available on FreedomBox Manual's QuickStart page.
For instructions on running the service on a local machine from source code, see INSTALL.md. For instructions on setting up for development purposes, see HACKING.md.
