This project is a portfolio and learning demo. It uses a seeded demo admin account for sign-in. Treat demo credentials and any sample data as non-production. Do not store real personal data or production secrets in a public fork without rotating keys and hardening auth.
Tracked seed files under dataset/ must use synthetic emails, phones, and names only (@example.com preferred). Domain wipe/reseed scripts (db:wipe:local, db:reseed:local) require ALLOW_DB_WIPE=1 and refuse non-localhost DATABASE_URL unless an explicit override is set—never enable those overrides against production.
Optional integrations (AI keys, CMS tokens, email SMTP/Resend, Sentry auth tokens) must stay server-side (see .env.example). Never commit real .env files or put secrets under NG_APP_* prefixes.
