I guess the better question would be, just what do I need to do some alignment work at home? Like, are we talking yardsticks and yarn, or is there a brand (eg Longacre) that's favored by the carmudgeons out there?
The front end isn't hard to do at home with some tape measures and straight edges. The toe-plates and something slippery under the tires is easy button.

If you want to do the rear it gets more involved since you need to square everything up.

Honestly, if you don't have a lot of time (or inclination to tinker), and this is a one time set-it and forget-it alignment, I'd just pay someone.
