-> **Tip:** For frontend development, run the Vite dev server on your host (`cd src/static/app && npm run dev`) and proxy to the container's API. This gives you hot module replacement for Vue components.

+
+```bash
+cd src/static/app
+npm install
+npm run build
+```
+
+Then restart the container so it serves the updated dist files:
+
+```bash
+docker restart wgdashboard
+```
