PlantStacks 1.0.2 - Windows portable
========================================

This is the self-contained PlantStacks server. No installer, no admin rights,
nothing to uninstall -- just run it.

RUN
  1. Double-click  Start-PlantStacks.cmd  (or run  plantstacks.exe  in a terminal).
  2. Open  https://localhost:8443/setup  for the guided first-run wizard.
  3. The first run mints a local self-signed TLS cert -- accept the browser warning.
  4. Create the first admin account when prompted. That is it.

WHERE YOUR DATA LIVES
  C:\ProgramData\PlantStacks   (config: platform.yaml, plus the data store + certs)
  Set PLANTSTACKS_DATA_DIR to put it elsewhere (e.g. a user folder or a USB drive).
  Your data NEVER leaves this machine. PlantStacks does not phone home.

RUN AS A BACKGROUND SERVICE (optional)
  Use the full Windows installer (Inno Setup build) which registers a service via
  WinSW, or wrap plantstacks.exe with your own service manager. The portable build
  intentionally stays install-free.

NOTE ON THE UNSIGNED BINARY
  This build is not code-signed (code-signing certs cost money). Windows SmartScreen
  may warn on first launch -- choose "More info" then "Run anyway". Verify the download
  against dist/SHA256SUMS if you obtained it from someone else.

PlantStacks is self-hosted operations/MES software. The provider entity
"PlantStacks LLC" is a North Carolina LLC (SOSID 3335426). This is pre-release software.
