### 🐛 Debugging the backend

The backend is running in a docker container. To debug the backend, you can attach a debugger to the container. The debugger server runs on port `5678`. The backend is started in dev mode with `make dev`.

#### Debug with VSCode

The configuration for this is already set up in the `launch.json` file in the `.vscode` folder. After you started the project in dev mode with `make dev` you can run a debugging session using the `Python: Remote attach` configuration.

## Frontend

- Functional tests
  - Good rendering of components
  - Backend call is made
  - State is updated
  - User can interact with the component

How:

- Vitest
- RTL (React Testing Library)
