Running Locally

Dev server via Docker (recommended)

npm run start:docker

Runs the Angular dev server in a container with live reload. The backend Docker stack must already be running (start it from the repo root with docker compose up).

Dev server (native)

npm install
npm start

App runs at http://localhost:4200. API calls are proxied to the backend Nginx container — requires the Docker stack to be running.
