    setup: |-
      **Everything runs in the browser.** EffectCraft is Rust compiled to WebAssembly; the container only serves static files. Files open through the browser's file picker and save as downloads, and nothing is stored server side, so there are no volumes.

      **Your work lives in the browser, not on the server.** Preferences and any in-app library or cache belong to the browser profile that opened the app, per origin. Clearing site data, switching browsers, or reaching the app under a different hostname means starting empty. Export what you want to keep; the exported files are the backup, as with any desktop app.

      **HTTPS.** WebGPU and the clipboard need a secure context. Over plain HTTP the app falls back to WebGL2; put it behind your reverse proxy for the full experience.
