  • Create basic main.py "Hello World".
• Create frontend/ directory.
  • Initialize Next.js app (npx create-next-app).
  • Install basic dependencies (Tailwind, Lucide, etc.).
• Create docker-compose.yml for orchestration.
  • Define backend service.
  • Define frontend service.
  • Define database service (PostgreSQL).
• Verify local development environment runs.

Acceptance Criteria

• docker-compose up starts all services.
• Frontend is accessible at localhost:3000.
• Backend API is accessible at localhost:8000.
