Description

Missing Frontend Watch Configuration in
compose.override.yml
Title: Enhancement: Add develop/watch configuration for frontend in
compose.override.yml

Description
Currently, the
compose.override.yml
file includes a watch configuration for the backend service, allowing for real-time syncing of code changes when running docker compose watch. However, this configuration is missing for the frontend service.

As a result, changes made to the frontend source code (e.g., in frontend/src) are not automatically synced to the running container, requiring a manual restart of the stack to see updates.

Proposed Change
Add a develop/watch section to the frontend service in compose.override.yml to enable automatic syncing and Hot Module Replacement (HMR) via Vite.

I second this. Is there a reason why this was not included originally?
