+### Frontend
+```bash
+curl http://localhost:3001
+```
+
+### PostgreSQL
+```bash
+docker-compose exec postgres pg_isready -U placebo_user -d placebo_db
+```
+
+## Database Migration
+
+### SQLite to PostgreSQL Migration
+Detailed migration plan in `scripts/migrate-to-postgres.md`
+
+```bash
+# Export SQLite data
+sqlite3 backend/data.db .dump > backend-data.sql
+
+# Transform for PostgreSQL
+python scripts/transform-sqlite-to-postgres.py backend-data.sql > backend-postgres.sql
+
+# Import to PostgreSQL
+docker-compose exec -T postgres psql -U placebo_user placebo_db < backend-postgres.sql
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### 1. Port Conflicts
+```bash
+# Check what's using port 3000
+sudo lsof -i :3000
+
+# Or use different ports in docker-compose.yml
+```
+
+#### 2. Docker Build Failures
+```bash
+# Clear Docker cache
+docker system prune -a
+
+# Rebuild with no cache
+docker-compose build --no-cache
+```
+
+#### 3. Database Connection Issues
+```bash
+# Check PostgreSQL logs
+docker-compose logs postgres
+
+# Test connection from backend
+docker-compose exec backend node -e "console.log('Testing DB connection...')"
+```
+
+#### 4. Permission Issues
+```bash
+# Fix volume permissions
+sudo chown -R $USER:$USER .
+
+# Rebuild containers
+docker-compose down && docker-compose up -d
+```
+
+### Debug Commands
+```bash
+# Shell into container
+docker-compose exec backend sh
+docker-compose exec frontend sh
+docker-compose exec cms sh
+
+# View container details
+docker-compose exec backend env
+docker-compose exec frontend env
+
+# Check network connectivity
+docker-compose exec backend curl http://postgres:5432
+docker-compose exec frontend curl http://backend:3000/health
+```
+
+## Deployment to Coolify
+
+### 1. Prepare for Production
+```bash
+# Update environment variables for production
+cp backend/.env.example backend/.env.production
+cp frontend/.env.example frontend/.env.production
+cp cms/cms/.env.example cms/cms/.env.production
+
+# Build production images
+docker-compose build

+# Placebo.mk - Development Setup
+
+This project supports two development modes:
+1. **Docker Mode** (Recommended): All services run in Docker containers
+2. **Local Mode**: Services run locally with npm, PostgreSQL in Docker
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### Option 1: Docker Mode (Recommended)
+```bash
+# Start all services in Docker
+npm run docker:up
+
+# Or use the alias
+npm run dev:docker
+```
+
+Services will be available at:
+- Frontend: http://localhost:5173
+- Backend API: http://localhost:3000
+- CMS (Strapi): http://localhost:1337/admin
+- PostgreSQL: localhost:5432
+
+### Option 2: Local Mode
+```bash
+# Start PostgreSQL in Docker
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up postgres
+
+# In another terminal, start backend and frontend locally
+npm run dev:local
+```
+
+## Environment Configuration
+
+### Backend Configuration
+The backend uses `.env` files for configuration:
+
+- `.env` - Default Docker configuration (committed)
+- `.env.local` - Local development configuration (not committed)
+- `.env.docker` - Docker configuration template
+- `.env.example` - Example configuration
+
+**Switching between modes:**
+```bash
+# Switch to local mode
+cd backend && npm run dev:local
+
+# Switch back to Docker mode
+cd backend && npm run dev:reset-env
+```
+
+### Frontend Configuration
+The frontend also uses `.env` files:
+
+- `.env` - Default Docker configuration (committed)
+- `.env.local` - Local development configuration (not committed)
+- `.env.docker` - Docker configuration template
+
+**API URL differences:**
+- Docker: `VITE_API_URL=http://backend:3000/api/v1`
+- Local: `VITE_API_URL=http://localhost:3000/api/v1`
+
+## Development Scripts
+
+### Root Level Scripts
+```bash
+# Docker commands
+npm run docker:up          # Start all services
+npm run docker:down        # Stop all services
+npm run docker:build       # Rebuild containers
+npm run docker:logs        # View logs
+npm run docker:ps          # Check container status
+
+# Development modes
+npm run dev:docker         # Docker mode (alias for docker:up)
+npm run dev:local          # Local mode
+
+# Utility
+npm run reset:env          # Reset .env files to Docker defaults
+npm run lint               # Run linting on all services
+npm run type-check         # Run TypeScript checks
+```
+
+### Backend Scripts (in backend/ directory)
+```bash
+npm run dev:docker         # Start in Docker mode (uses .env)
+npm run dev:local          # Start in local mode (uses .env.local)
+npm run start:dev          # Original NestJS dev command
+npm run dev:reset-env      # Reset .env to Docker defaults
+```
+
+### Frontend Scripts (in frontend/ directory)
+```bash
+npm run dev:docker         # Start in Docker mode
+npm run dev:local          # Start in local mode
+npm run dev                # Original Vite dev command
+npm run dev:reset-env      # Reset .env to Docker defaults
+```
+
+## Database Management
+
+### PostgreSQL in Docker
+The PostgreSQL container is configured with:
+- Host: `localhost:5432` (from host) or `postgres:5432` (from Docker)
+- Database: `placebo_backend_db` (backend), `placebo_cms_db` (CMS)
+- User: `placebo_user`
+- Password: `placebo_password`
+
+### Connecting to Database
+```bash
+# From host machine
+psql -h localhost -p 5432 -U placebo_user -d placebo_backend_db
+
+# From within Docker container
+psql -h postgres -p 5432 -U placebo_user -d placebo_backend_db
+```
+

+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+1. **Port conflicts**
+   - Check if ports 3000, 5173, 1337, 5432 are free
+   - Use `lsof -i :3000` to check what's using a port
+
+2. **Database connection errors**
+   - Ensure PostgreSQL container is running: `docker ps`
+   - Check logs: `docker logs placebo-postgres-dev`
+   - Verify credentials in `.env` files
+
+3. **Environment configuration**
+   - Run `npm run reset:env` to reset to Docker defaults
+   - Ensure `.env.local` exists for local development
+
+4. **Docker container issues**
+   - Rebuild containers: `npm run docker:build`
+   - Clear Docker cache: `docker system prune -f`
+
+### Reset Everything
+```bash
+# Stop and remove containers
+npm run docker:down
+docker system prune -f
+
+# Reset environment files
+npm run reset:env
+
+# Start fresh
+npm run docker:up
+```
+
+## Production Deployment
+
+For production, use:
+```bash
+docker-compose -f docker-compose.yml up -d
+```
+
+Production configuration:
+- Uses separate `docker-compose.yml`
+- Includes Nginx reverse proxy
+- No hot reload, optimized builds
+- Health checks and proper logging
+
+## Notes
+
+- **Docker-first approach**: `.env` files are configured for Docker by default
+- **Local development**: Uses `.env.local` files when running services locally
+- **PostgreSQL**: Always runs in Docker for consistency
+- **Secrets**: Never commit actual secrets to repository

+# Database Migration Plan: SQLite → PostgreSQL
+
+## Overview
+This document outlines the migration strategy for moving from SQLite (development) to PostgreSQL (production) for both the Backend API and CMS.
+
+## Current State
+- **Backend**: Uses SQLite with TypeORM entities
+- **CMS**: Uses SQLite with Strapi's internal database
+- **Development**: Both use local SQLite files
+- **Production**: Need PostgreSQL for scalability and reliability
+
+## Migration Steps
+
+### Phase 1: Database Schema Preparation
+
+#### 1.1 Update Backend Database Configuration
+```typescript
+// backend/src/config/database.config.ts
+export default () => ({
+  database: {
+    type: process.env.DATABASE_TYPE || 'sqlite',
+    host: process.env.DATABASE_HOST || 'localhost',
+    port: parseInt(process.env.DATABASE_PORT, 10) || 5432,
+    username: process.env.DATABASE_USERNAME || 'placebo_user',
+    password: process.env.DATABASE_PASSWORD || 'placebo_password',
+    database: process.env.DATABASE_NAME || 'placebo_backend_db',
+    synchronize: process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production',
+    logging: process.env.NODE_ENV !== 'production',
+    entities: [__dirname + '/../**/*.entity{.ts,.js}'],
+    migrations: [__dirname + '/../migrations/*{.ts,.js}'],
+    cli: {
+      migrationsDir: 'src/migrations',
+    },
+  },
+});
+```
+
+#### 1.2 Create TypeORM Migrations
+```bash
+# Generate migration for existing schema
+cd backend
+npm run typeorm:generate-migration --name=InitialSchema
+
+# Create migration files for PostgreSQL compatibility
+npm run typeorm:create-migration --name=AddPostgresSupport
+```
+
+#### 1.3 Update CMS Database Configuration
+```javascript
+// cms/cms/config/database.js
+module.exports = ({ env }) => ({
+  connection: {
+    client: env('DATABASE_CLIENT', 'sqlite'),
+    connection: {
+      host: env('DATABASE_HOST', 'localhost'),
+      port: env.int('DATABASE_PORT', 5432),
+      database: env('DATABASE_NAME', 'placebo_cms_db'),
+      user: env('DATABASE_USERNAME', 'placebo_user'),
+      password: env('DATABASE_PASSWORD', 'placebo_password'),
+      ssl: env.bool('DATABASE_SSL', false),
+    },
+    debug: false,
+  },
+});
+```
+
+### Phase 2: Data Migration
+
+#### 2.1 Export SQLite Data
+```bash
+# Export Backend SQLite data
+sqlite3 backend/data.db .dump > backend-data.sql
+
+# Export CMS SQLite data
+sqlite3 cms/cms/.tmp/data.db .dump > cms-data.sql
+```
+
+#### 2.2 Transform SQL for PostgreSQL
+Create transformation scripts:
+```python
+# scripts/transform-sqlite-to-postgres.py
+import re
+
+def transform_sqlite_to_postgres(sqlite_sql):
+    # Remove SQLite-specific syntax
+    sqlite_sql = re.sub(r'AUTOINCREMENT', 'SERIAL', sqlite_sql)
+    sqlite_sql = re.sub(r'INTEGER PRIMARY KEY', 'SERIAL PRIMARY KEY', sqlite_sql)
+    sqlite_sql = re.sub(r'BLOB', 'BYTEA', sqlite_sql)
+    sqlite_sql = re.sub(r'DATETIME', 'TIMESTAMP', sqlite_sql)
+    return sqlite_sql
+```
+
+#### 2.3 Import to PostgreSQL
+```bash
+# Create databases
+psql -U placebo_user -h localhost -d placebo_db -c "CREATE DATABASE placebo_backend_db;"
+psql -U placebo_user -h localhost -d placebo_db -c "CREATE DATABASE placebo_cms_db;"
+
+# Import transformed data
+psql -U placebo_user -h localhost -d placebo_backend_db -f transformed-backend-data.sql
+psql -U placebo_user -h localhost -d placebo_cms_db -f transformed-cms-data.sql
+```
+
+### Phase 3: Application Updates
+
+#### 3.1 Update Environment Variables
+Create `.env.production` files:
+```bash
+# backend/.env.production
+DATABASE_TYPE=postgres
+DATABASE_HOST=postgres
+DATABASE_PORT=5432
+DATABASE_USERNAME=placebo_user
+DATABASE_PASSWORD=${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
+DATABASE_NAME=placebo_backend_db
+DATABASE_SYNCHRONIZE=false
+
+# cms/cms/.env.production
+DATABASE_CLIENT=postgres
+DATABASE_HOST=postgres
+DATABASE_PORT=5432
+DATABASE_NAME=placebo_cms_db
+DATABASE_USERNAME=placebo_user
+DATABASE_PASSWORD=${POSTGRES_PASSWORD}
+DATABASE_SSL=false
+```
+
+#### 3.2 Update Docker Configuration
+Update `docker-compose.yml` to use PostgreSQL for both services.
+
+### Phase 4: Testing
+
+#### 4.1 Local Testing with Docker Compose
+```bash
+# Start services with PostgreSQL
+docker-compose up -d postgres backend cms frontend
+
+# Run data migration
+./scripts/migrate-data.sh
+
+# Test endpoints
+curl http://localhost:3000/health
+curl http://localhost:1337/_health
+```
+
+#### 4.2 Data Validation
+```sql
+-- Verify data counts match
+SELECT 'Backend Articles', COUNT(*) FROM articles
+UNION ALL
+SELECT 'CMS Content Types', COUNT(*) FROM strapi_content_types;
+
+-- Verify relationships
+SELECT a.title, COUNT(c.id) as comment_count
+FROM articles a
+LEFT JOIN comments c ON a.id = c.article_id
+GROUP BY a.id;
+```
+
+### Phase 5: Production Deployment
+
+#### 5.1 Create Migration Script
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# scripts/deploy-migration.sh
+
+set -e
+
+echo "Starting database migration..."
+
+# Backup existing PostgreSQL data
+pg_dump -U placebo_user -h ${PRODUCTION_DB_HOST} -d placebo_backend_db > backup-$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
+
+# Run migrations
+npm run typeorm:migration:run
+
+# Verify migration
+npm run typeorm:query "SELECT version_num FROM typeorm_migrations ORDER BY version_num DESC LIMIT 1;"
+
+echo "Migration completed successfully!"
+```
+
+#### 5.2 Rollback Plan
+```bash
+#!/bin/bash
+# scripts/rollback-migration.sh
+
+set -e
+
+echo "Starting rollback..."
+
+# Restore from backup
+psql -U placebo_user -h ${PRODUCTION_DB_HOST} -d placebo_backend_db -f backup-${BACKUP_DATE}.sql
+
+# Revert environment variables
+export DATABASE_TYPE=sqlite
+export DATABASE_NAME=./data.db
+
+echo "Rollback completed!"
+```
+
+## Migration Tools
+
+### 1. SQLite to PostgreSQL Converter
+```python
+# scripts/sqlite_to_postgres.py
+import sqlite3
+import psycopg2
+import os
+
+def migrate_table(sqlite_conn, pg_conn, table_name):
+    # Read from SQLite
+    cursor_sqlite = sqlite_conn.cursor()
+    cursor_sqlite.execute(f"SELECT * FROM {table_name}")
+    rows = cursor_sqlite.fetchall()
+    
+    # Get column names
+    cursor_sqlite.execute(f"PRAGMA table_info({table_name})")
+    columns = [col[1] for col in cursor_sqlite.fetchall()]
+    
+    # Insert into PostgreSQL
+    cursor_pg = pg_conn.cursor()
+    placeholders = ', '.join(['%s'] * len(columns))
+    columns_str = ', '.join(columns)
+    
+    for row in rows:
+        cursor_pg.execute(
+            f"INSERT INTO {table_name} ({columns_str}) VALUES ({placeholders})",
+            row
+        )
+    
+    pg_conn.commit()
+```
+
+### 2. Data Validation Script
+```python
+# scripts/validate_migration.py
+def validate_counts(sqlite_conn, pg_conn, table_name):
+    cursor_sqlite = sqlite_conn.cursor()
+    cursor_sqlite.execute(f"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM {table_name}")
+    sqlite_count = cursor_sqlite.fetchone()[0]
+    
+    cursor_pg = pg_conn.cursor()
+    cursor_pg.execute(f"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM {table_name}")
+    pg_count = cursor_pg.fetchone()[0]
+    
+    return sqlite_count == pg_count
+```
+
+## Timeline
+
+### Week 1: Preparation
+- Update database configurations
+- Create migration scripts
+- Set up PostgreSQL locally
+
+### Week 2: Testing
+- Test migration locally
+- Validate data integrity
+- Performance testing
+
+### Week 3: Staging Deployment
+- Deploy to staging environment
+- User acceptance testing
+- Fix any issues
+
+### Week 4: Production Deployment
+- Schedule maintenance window
+- Execute migration
+- Monitor performance
+- Rollback if needed
+
+## Risk Mitigation
+
+### High Risks:
+1. **Data loss**: Maintain multiple backups
+2. **Downtime**: Schedule during low-traffic hours
+3. **Performance issues**: Monitor closely after migration
+
+### Mitigation Strategies:
+1. Complete backup before migration
+2. Gradual rollout with canary deployment
+3. Performance monitoring for 48 hours post-migration
+
+## Success Criteria
+1. All data migrated without loss
+2. Application functionality unchanged
+3. Performance equal or better than SQLite
+4. Zero downtime during migration
+5. All tests passing post-migration
+
+## Post-Migration Tasks
+1. Update documentation
+2. Remove SQLite dependencies
+3. Set up PostgreSQL monitoring
+4. Schedule regular backups
+5. Update deployment scripts
