AAA 8effc8e8f4 fix(website): restore download provider labels and clarify Server packages
## Problem and outcome / 问题与结果

Restore explicit GitHub and Gitee labels on every platform download card while keeping each provider's native latest-download URL. Identify the Linux Server archive by its actual release filename in both READMEs and self-hosting guides, and record the remaining maintenance reports in TODO.

## Verification / 验证

- Website build, documentation checks and repository hygiene pass.
- Both languages fit at 360px; all six links retain their platform-specific latest routes.
- An independent reader ran the documented source and Windows App sharing paths; the Server archive naming correction follows that walkthrough.
- The release planner reports `publish: false` for this commit.

## Impact / 影响

Website and documentation only; no App/Server release. The Chrome block on Gitee downloads remains unresolved and tracked in TODO; the label correction does not clear that provider verdict.

The introduction, getting-started, self-hosting and translation guides are available in English and Chinese. Technical references keep one shared version.

Run from source

You can try the Browser application locally with Node from .node-version, npm from package.json, and Go 1.26 from go.mod. Run these commands from the repository root.

Start the web UI:

npm ci
npm run dev

In a second terminal, start the server. For a POSIX shell:

PORT=8788 PUBLIC_BASE_URL=http://localhost:8787 go run ./cmd/piik-server

Or in PowerShell:

$env:PORT = '8788'
$env:PUBLIC_BASE_URL = 'http://localhost:8787'
go build -o build/dev/piik-server.exe ./cmd/piik-server
./build/dev/piik-server.exe

The fixed Windows executable path avoids repeated firewall prompts from go run. Open localhost:8787, start sharing, and open the invitation in another browser tab to try watching. This localhost invitation stays on your computer; remote invitations need a reachable origin as described in configuration. Browser capture requires localhost or HTTPS.

For the self-contained App, follow App development and packaging, including the platform's native capture requirements.

Work on Piik

Contributing covers the workflow and choosing focused checks. The main verification commands are:

npm run check
npm run check:client

Use the naming and copy guide for product names, commands, role labels and Chinese/English voice. Piik-owned code uses MIT; see the licensing guide for third-party components.

For the public website, see the introduction design and website preview and publishing.
