docker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up -d   # Postgres + Redis
pnpm install
npm run setup                                     # Interactive env setup
cd apps/web && pnpm prisma migrate dev && cd ../..
pnpm dev

Docker images are automatically built on every push to main and tagged with the commit SHA (e.g., elie222/inbox-zero:abc1234). The latest tag always points to the most recent main build. Formal releases use version tags (e.g., v2.26.0).
