-## 🚢 Production Deployment
-
-### Building for Production
-
-```bash
-# Build production image
-make prod-build
-
-# Start production environment
-make prod
-
-# Or with Docker Compose
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml build
-docker compose -f docker-compose.prod.yml up -d
-```
-
-### Production Environment Variables
-
-Required environment variables for production:
-
-```env
-# Required - Generate APP_KEY (see instructions below)
-APP_KEY=base64:your-generated-key-here
-APP_URL=https://your-domain.com
-
-# Database Configuration
-DB_DATABASE=dishplanner
-DB_USERNAME=dishplanner
-DB_PASSWORD=strong-password-here
-DB_ROOT_PASSWORD=strong-root-password
-
-# Optional Email Configuration
-MAIL_HOST=your-smtp-host
-MAIL_PORT=587
-MAIL_USERNAME=your-username
-MAIL_PASSWORD=your-password
-MAIL_FROM_ADDRESS=noreply@your-domain.com
-```
-
-#### Generating APP_KEY
-
-The APP_KEY is critical for encryption and must be kept consistent across deployments. Generate one using any of these methods:
-
-**Option 1: Using OpenSSL (Linux/Mac/Windows with Git Bash)**
-```bash
-echo "base64:$(openssl rand -base64 32)"
-```
-
-**Option 2: Using Node.js (Cross-platform)**
-```bash
-node -e "console.log('base64:' + require('crypto').randomBytes(32).toString('base64'))"
-```
-
-**Option 3: Using Python (Cross-platform)**
-```bash
-python -c "import base64, os; print('base64:' + base64.b64encode(os.urandom(32)).decode())"
-```
-
-**Option 4: Online Generator**
-Generate a random 32-character string at https://randomkeygen.com/ and prepend with `base64:`
-
-⚠️ **Important**: Save this key securely! If lost, you won't be able to decrypt existing data.
-
-### Deployment with DockGE
-
-The production setup is optimized for DockGE deployment with just 2 containers:
-
-1. **app** - Laravel application with FrankenPHP
-2. **db** - MariaDB database
-
-Simply import the `docker-compose.prod.yml` into DockGE and configure your environment variables.
-
-## 🛠️ Technology Stack
-
-- **Backend**: Laravel 12 with Livewire 3
-- **Web Server**: FrankenPHP (PHP 8.3 + Caddy)
-- **Database**: MariaDB 11
-- **Frontend**: Blade + Livewire + Alpine.js
-- **Styling**: TailwindCSS with custom dark theme
-- **Assets**: Vite for bundling
-
-## 📦 Docker Architecture
-
-### Development (`docker-compose.yml`)
-- **Hot reload** - Volume mounts for live code editing
-- **Debug tools** - Xdebug configured for debugging
-- **Email testing** - Mailhog for capturing emails
-- **Asset watching** - Vite dev server for instant updates
-
-### Production (`docker-compose.prod.yml`)
-- **Optimized** - Multi-stage builds with caching
-- **Secure** - No debug tools, proper permissions
-- **Health checks** - Automatic container monitoring
-- **Single container** - FrankenPHP serves everything
-

-
-# Try manual connection
-make db-shell
-```
-
-### Permission issues
-```bash
-# Fix storage permissions
-docker compose exec app chmod -R 777 storage bootstrap/cache
-```
-
-### Clear all caches
-```bash
