What are the technical requirements for local development?
To develop locally, you need Node.js 22 LTS or 24 LTS, pnpm 10+, and an empty PostgreSQL database.
How do I set up the application for the first time?
After setting up your `.env` file with a `DATABASE_URL` and a 32-byte `APP_SECRET`, you must install dependencies, run migrations using `pnpm exec prisma migrate deploy`, and then start the server with `pnpm dev`.
How can I back up my data before performing an upgrade?
You should back up your PostgreSQL database. For Docker Compose installations, you can use the command: `docker compose exec -T postgres pg_dump -U talivia -d talivia_oss > talivia-backup.sql`.
