    1. Start Authentik:
       docker compose up -d

    2. Access the web interface:
       {% if traefik_enabled -%}
       - Via Traefik: https://{{ traefik_host }}
       {% if ports_enabled %}- Direct access: http://localhost:{{ ports_http }}{% endif %}
       {%- else -%}
       - Open http://localhost:{{ ports_http }} in your browser
       {%- endif %}

    3. Initial setup:
       - Follow the setup wizard to create your admin account
       - Configure authentication flows and providers
       - Set up user directory (LDAP, Active Directory, or local)

    4. Configure your first application:
       - Navigate to Applications → Create
       - Choose authentication provider (OAuth2, SAML, LDAP, etc.)
       - Configure redirect URIs and client credentials
       - Assign users or groups to the application

    5. Important configuration:
       - Secret Key: {{ authentik_secret_key }}
       - Database Password: {{ database_password }}
       - Store these credentials securely!

    6. Security recommendations:
       - Enable two-factor authentication for admin accounts
       - Configure backup flows and recovery tokens
       - Set up email notifications for security events
       - Review and customize authentication policies
       - Regularly backup the database and media files
