Hi,

I don't know of any existing guides, so it'd be great if you can
document your experience and post one!

As for starting points, if you're not already familiar with the basics,
they're probably a good starting point[0]. After that, think about and
document your threat model and any privacy considerations you made in
the design of the application (privacy by design, not privacy by
policy).

Please be nice to the network, don't transmit unnecessary data.
