The reason that this is hard without the wizard is that the repo parms are required to install the repository, but the repository needs to be installed for you to set the repo parms. The wizard takes care of this chicken and egg scenario for you and while it's at it, takes care of generating some of the documentation like creating the one liner which people can use to install the repository.

These are documented in the video.

The repository is at https://github.com/ksandom/achel.
