Docs reference make init-db but no Makefile exists in the repo #54

Description

The Quickstart guide lists make init-db as Method 2 for running database migrations:

make init-db

This approach "loads DATABASE_URL from .env" automatically.

However, the repository does not contain a Makefile. The only file at the root is compose.yml. Running make init-db fails immediately:

make: *** No rule to make target 'init-db'.  Stop.

Expected behavior

Either:

  • A Makefile with an init-db target should be included in the repository, or
  • The documentation should be updated to remove the make init-db reference if it's no longer the intended workflow.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Clone the repo
  2. Run make init-db
  3. Observe the error

Context

Found during QA of the quickstart documentation.
