I understand based on the documentation that [Standalone deployment | Mender documentation](https://docs.mender.io/3.3/artifact-creation/standalone-deployment) that for standalone / offline updates occurs by using `mender` CLI utility.

Is there some possible GUI to trigger the standalone changes.

## Scenario

I have a raspberry pi that is not connected to the internet I wish to try bringing some updates via USB-stick. As far as I understand, I will be able to perform updates using `mender update /mnt/sdX` but is there some UI for the same to make it _clickable_?
