A note on screenshots
The pages are illustrated with screenshots of the product, which live in the
images/ folder, grouped by section. A few callouts remain where a
picture cannot be taken inside Esqase: a third party consent screen, a
spreadsheet application, or an operating system notification. Each one describes
what you would be looking at on your own machine.
