orascheandClaude Fable 5 d153cc2eba README: drop the dev basic auth credentials
The vitecdev password has been rotated today (htpasswd on the server, new value distributed via the password manager and set as VITEC_API_AUTH on the SSR VPS). Credentials do not belong in the repository; the leaked value is invalid as of now.

# VITEC Platform
### Headless TYPO3 v14 + React — the VITEC website
TYPO3 runs the editorial backend and serves content as **JSON**; a decoupled
**React** front end renders it. This repository is the TYPO3 Composer distribution.

> **Overview**
> This is a TYPO3 CMS base distribution configured for **headless** operation. Editors
> work in the TYPO3 backend; every page is exposed as a JSON document (no server‑side
> HTML). The compiled React application in [`public/_frontend/`](public/_frontend/)
> consumes that JSON. All custom domain logic — content elements, plugins, layout
> containers and the JSON renderers — lives in the **[`evomedien/vitec`](packages/vitec/)**
> extension.

evomedien/vitec extension
(content elements · plugins · JSON-LD)
```
The heavy lifting — the JSON envelope, per‑plugin renderers, layout containers and
schema.org structured data — is documented in the extension’s architecture spec:
**[`packages/vitec/Documentation/Headless-JSON-Architecture.md`](packages/vitec/Documentation/Headless-JSON-Architecture.md)**.
## Tech stack
| Layer | Technology |
|---|---|
| CMS / backend | TYPO3 CMS `^14.3` (headless) |
| Language / runtime | PHP `8.4` |
| Dependency management | Composer (base distribution) |
| Headless rendering | `friendsoftypo3/headless`, `nb-headless-content-blocks` |
| Content modelling | `friendsoftypo3/content-blocks`, `b13/container` |
| News | `georgringer/news` |
| Custom logic | `evomedien/vitec` (see [`packages/vitec/`](packages/vitec/)) |
| Front end | React, built with Vite → `public/_frontend/` |

## Requirements
- **PHP 8.4**
- **Composer 2**
- **MySQL / MariaDB** (database)
- **Node.js** (only to build the front end)
- Access to the private `t3planet` Composer repository (via `auth.json`)
## Getting started
```bash
# 1. Install PHP dependencies (requires a valid auth.json for the private repo)
composer install
# 2. Configure the system (database, encryption key, …)
# config/system/settings.php is git-ignored; create it via the Install Tool
# or copy it from a secure source.
# 3. Apply the database schema
vendor/bin/typo3 database:updateschema "*.add,*.change"
# 4. Warm up
vendor/bin/typo3 cache:flush
```
The document root is **`public/`**. Point the web server there; `public/index.php` is
the TYPO3 entry point.
## Configuration
- **Headless mode & routing** — `config/sites/vitec/config.yaml`:
```yaml
base: /
headless: 1
dependencies:
- friendsoftypo3/headless
- friendsoftypo3/headless-mixed
- nb-headless-content-blocks/headless-content-blocks
- georgringer/news
```
- **System settings & secrets** — `config/system/settings.php` and `auth.json` are
**git-ignored**. Never commit database credentials or Composer tokens.
## Everyday commands
```bash
vendor/bin/typo3 cache:flush # clear all caches
vendor/bin/typo3 database:updateschema "*.add,*.change" # apply schema changes
bash fix-asset-perms.sh # fix asset permissions (see below)
```
## Deployment notes
- **Document root:** `public/`.
- **Asset permissions:** when files are deployed over an SSHFS/Windows mount they can
land with a too‑restrictive mode (no “other” read), which makes the web server return
**403** for backend icons/CSS/JS. Run [`fix-asset-perms.sh`](fix-asset-perms.sh) on the
server after deploying assets (it sets files to `644` / directories to `755` under
`public/_assets` and the extension’s `Resources/Public`, then flushes caches).
- **Never commit** `config/system/settings.php` or `auth.json` (already git-ignored).
