Welcome to your Pi-Kit

Great news — you’re already on your Pi-Kit and it’s responding.

Everything stays on your local network. Let’s move you to the secure (HTTPS) dashboard so you can manage Pi-Kit safely.

Why switch to HTTPS?

Encrypts traffic on your LAN so no one can snoop your Pi-Kit dashboard.
Stops mixed-content / “not secure” browser warnings.
Needed for some browser features (clipboard, notifications, service workers).

If you see a warning

Brave/Chrome: click Advanced → Proceed.
Firefox: click Advanced → Accept the Risk & Continue.

This warning is expected the first time. It’s safe for your own Pi on your own network.

Install the Pi-Kit CA (recommended, one-time)

This removes future warnings for the Pi-Kit dashboard.
