Use this tutorial when you want the shortest guided path from hardware check to a successful off-chain smoke test.
Move through the quickstart in this order:
  1. Read the Quickstart overview to confirm the path matches your hardware and time budget.
  2. Run the video transcoding smoke test to verify Docker, GPU passthrough, and local off-chain routing.
  3. Use Add AI to Your Node when you want to extend the same machine with AI inference.
The quickstart stays off-chain. Move to the Setup Guide after the smoke test passes and you are ready to configure a production node.
