1. Install VS Code with dev container support.
2. Open the project in VS Code, then run Dev Containers: Reopen in Container from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).
3. Once the container is ready, open a terminal and run:

   ./manage.py migrate
   ./manage.py createsuperuser

Open the Run and Debug panel (Ctrl+Shift+D) and select a launch configuration:

• Django: Server - Starts the development server at http://localhost:8000/
• Django: Server (eager Celery) - Same, but Celery tasks run synchronously in the web process (useful for debugging task code without a worker)
• Celery: Worker - Starts only the Celery worker
• Django + Celery - Starts both the server and a Celery worker
• Django: Management Command - Pick and run any management command

Run the full test suite from a terminal: tox

Auto-format code: tox -e format

Run and debug individual tests from the Testing panel (Ctrl+Shift+;).

After changes to the Dockerfile, Docker Compose files, or devcontainer.json, run Dev Containers: Rebuild Container from the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P).

For dependency changes in pyproject.toml, just run uv sync --all-extras --all-groups.
