wmantly c60e745665 docs: link Quickstart/Architecture/Standalone from Home; bump submodules to v1.1.2
docs/index.md (the published site's home page) never linked to
architecture.md, quickstart.md, or standalone.md -- they were only
reachable by direct URL. Added a "More docs" section linking all
three.

Bumps proxy and sso-manager-node to v1.1.2 (air-gap fixes + in-app
/docs on both).

# theta-env
The whole theta42 identity + access stack in one repo, brought up with a
single command — for home labs and small businesses.
It wires together two projects that already work on their own —
[SSO Manager](https://theta42.github.io/sso-manager-node/) (OIDC provider +
LDAP directory) and [Proxy](https://theta42.github.io/proxy/) (an
OIDC-protected reverse proxy that can also look users up directly in LDAP) —
and automates the fiddly part: registering the proxy as an OIDC client of the
SSO and pointing it at the right LDAP directory, with hostnames and secrets
generated from one `setup.env`.
## Screenshots
The SSO Manager and the proxy it fronts, both stood up by one `./setup.sh` run:

## Why this over running them separately
Each project works standalone, but they only become useful together once the
proxy is registered as an OIDC client of the SSO *and* pointed at the SSO's
LDAP directory — and the domain has to match across half a dozen config
fields, or logins silently fail. Doing that by hand is fiddly. `setup.sh`
asks for your domain once, generates both apps' config with it filled in
everywhere, registers the proxy as an OIDC client automatically, and
snapshots state before every rebuild.
## What you get
- **SSO Manager**, fronted by the proxy under TLS — manage users, groups,
and OAuth clients.
- **Proxy** — add the hosts you want to protect with OIDC login.
- **LDAPS** for legacy apps that bind directly.
- **Self-service API tokens** in both apps' UIs, for scripting/CI without a
browser session.
## Get it
```bash
git clone --recursive https://github.com/theta42/theta-env.git
cd theta-env
cp setup.env.example setup.env # then edit setup.env: set CFG_DOMAIN to your domain
./setup.sh
```
You need **Docker** + **Docker Compose**. `./setup.sh` is idempotent — re-run
any time to converge the stack to `./config/`. For the full config reference,
architecture, and running each project standalone, see the
**[GitHub repository](https://github.com/theta42/theta-env)**.
