After you install
From download to SSH in four steps

No CLI, no Go or Node toolchain — download the build for your OS and launch it.
Let it prepare your machine
One guided screen checks for Multipass, mkcert, and cloudflared, then installs whatever's missing.
Create your first sandbox
Name it, pick resources, launch. SSH keys, cloud-init, and the hostname are handled for you.
Stay current automatically
VPSBox checks for newer releases while it runs and surfaces them in the app.
