Research direction

Start at the Wiki homepage and review the existing release and installation documentation. Add direct links for GmsCore, GsfProxy, and FakeStore, followed by the proposed three-step setup guide covering downloads, Signature Spoofing, and optional location and Google Account configuration. Done means a new user can find the latest downloads and basic setup steps from the homepage.

Description

enhancement

Hi everybody,

The Wiki is currently well-structured, but users often have to navigate through several pages to find the actual download links and basic installation steps. I suggest adding these elements directly to the Wiki homepage to streamline the onboarding process.

Proposed Additions
Direct Download Section: A clear section (or a table) containing links to the latest stable releases of:

Service Core (GmsCore)

Services Framework Proxy (GsfProxy)

FakeStore

Quick-Start Tutorial: A "3-step guide" for new users:

Download the components.

Grant necessary permissions (Signature Spoofing).

Configure Location and Google Account (optional).

Rationale
Consolidating this information on the main Wiki page reduces friction for new users and makes the documentation more accessible for those who just want to get the project running quickly
