+   After your containers are up, run the following commands to apply database migrations and seed data inside the backend container:
+   ```bash
+   docker exec -it fusero-app-backend npx mikro-orm migration:up
+   docker exec -it fusero-app-backend npm run seed
+   ```
+   **Note:** These commands must be run inside the backend container so they use the correct Docker network and environment variables.
