Im sure there used to a zip pack that included with joomla & SP builder, maybe im dreaming.

Hi Glenn.

If you have already Joomla installed, just from here: https://www.joomshaper.com/downloads/extension

download SP Page Builder 6 Pro and install like any other extension, then do whole rest.

In general, you can use SPPB with almost any template, if you prefer Casiopeia - keep it. I know many people who customize that template and use it, even for commercial websites. Even after X days/weeks you will be able to install Helix Ultimate template set it as default, and switch "design".

No, but I always recommend having Akeeba Backup Core, JCE Editor (Free) and tasty tea on the desk.

If I may ask, are you doing that site for yourself, family or ... ?

It wasn't a dream or nightmare ;) Indeed Helix Ultimate Quickstart include both, but SPPB is in Lite (limited) version, and you have to install Pro then clear cache, and remove all Demo data to start from scratch. It also takes time.

Have fun!
