I'm guessing I need to figure out how wpa_supplicant interacts with wicked
Probably not the best plan. wicked is going away (as in dead), so pick some other management tool. Sad 'cos I used to like it. :(
I had been out googling and seen how people on Raspberry Pis was doing it
Specifically I put wicked on a pi and had no end of grief until I removed it. networking.service and dhcpcd.service seem to do everything, with dhcpcd.service running wpa_supplicant. pi has a fudge where if you put wifi details in a wpa_supplicant.conf file in /boot the system will read it and configure itself properly. Similar to putting a file called ssh in /boot. https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/configuration/wireless/headless.md
