Related Issue

• Closes: 🐛 Bug Report: Production Docker build fails because dev dependencies are excluded before build step #243

Description

Fix the production Docker build by installing all dependencies before running npm run build in Dockerfile.prod. This ensures dev-only build tools (like Vite) are available during the build stage.

How Has This Been Tested?

• Built the production image locally: docker build -f Dockerfile.prod .
