Resources
Resources is the third tab in the bottom nav. It holds the few things in the app that aren’t a project: how the app looks (theme), what language the app uses, links out to the documentation and the community, a quick path to setting up your own server, and the legal pages.

Documentation
The InstantIoT Documentation card opens the documentation site — guides, references, tutorials. It uses an in-app browser, so the rest of the app stays one tap away.

Community
The InstantIoT Community card opens the community space. Ask questions, share what you’re building, see what other makers are doing.

Install your own server
A short hero card sits in the middle of the screen with the InstantIoT promise — Freedom to build your own IoT, however you want, on your own hardware — and a button labeled How to install your InstantIoT Server. Tap it to open the server install guide on the documentation site, with a hint that the server runs on a Raspberry Pi, your personal computer, and more.

From here, you can move into Server Mode.
Settings
A single Settings card holds the two preferences that change how the app feels.

Theme
Pick how the app looks.
- System — follows your phone’s setting. Switches with it automatically.
- Light — light interface, regardless of your phone’s setting.
- Dark — dark interface, regardless of your phone’s setting.
Tap an option. The change applies immediately, no restart needed.
Language
Pick the language the app uses.
- System — follows your phone’s setting.
- Français — French.
- English — English.
Tapping a language opens a small dialog: To apply the new language, the app needs to restart.

You choose:
- Restart Now — the app closes and reopens in the new language right away.
- Apply on Next Launch — the dialog dismisses, and the change takes effect the next time you cold-start the app.
The restart is needed because some text is baked into the screens at compile time. Theme can flip on the fly; language can’t.
Legal
At the very bottom of the screen, a small inline footer with two links:
- Privacy Policy
- Terms of Service

Both open in the in-app browser.
