 3.  **Run the Application:**
     ```bash
-    # Run using Uvicorn, specifying the app location within the package
-    uvicorn app.api:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 
+    # Use the Makefile (default target runs uvicorn)
+    make run
     ```
-    (Alternatively, if you want hot-reloading during development: `uvicorn app.api:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --reload`)
+    (Alternatively, for development with auto-reload: `make run-reload`)
     
-    (You can also potentially run `python -m app.main` if the `app/main.py` is set up correctly for module execution, but the `uvicorn` command is more standard for FastAPI.)
+    (This uses the command `uvicorn app.api:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000` internally.)
 4.  **Access the Web Interface:**
     Open a web browser and go to `http://localhost:8000`. (Note: The server log may show `http://0.0.0.0:8000`, which means the server is listening on all network interfaces. However, you should use `localhost` in your browser to access the server from your local machine. You cannot directly type `0.0.0.0` into your browser's address bar.)
