## 🏃‍♂️ Development Workflow

### 1. Create and Setup Project
```bash
create-django-inertia myapp --react --typescript
cd myapp
python -m venv venv && source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt
npm install
```

### 2. Database Setup
```bash
python manage.py migrate
python manage.py createsuperuser  # Optional: create admin user
```

### 3. Development Servers
```bash
# Single command (runs both servers)
python manage.py runserver & npm run dev

# Or in separate terminals:
# Terminal 1: Django backend
python manage.py runserver

# Terminal 2: Vite frontend  
npm run dev
```

### 4. Create New Pages
1. Add Django view in `home/views.py`:
```python
def about(request):
    return inertia_render(request, 'home/about', {
        'message': 'About our company'
    })
```

2. Add URL route in `home/urls.py`:  
```python
path('about/', views.about, name='about'),
```

3. Create frontend component in `static/pages/home/about.tsx` (React) or `static/pages/home/about.vue` (Vue)
