Summary

Replaces the production-flavoured .env.example with a dev-focused template and adds a production reference in the README quick start.

Changes

  • Rewrote .env.example with dev values (NODE_ENV=development, HIGHFIVE_API_KEY=dev-secret-key, DEBUG=true, DUCKDB_SERVICE_URL)
  • Added reference to .env.production.example in README quick start section

Why

The existing .env.example was a production template (HIGHFIVE_API_KEY=your_secure_production_key_here, NODE_ENV=production) but the README quick start told contributors to copy it for dev. This caused silent issues:

  • The placeholder string became the admin login password
  • Required dev variables (DEBUG, DUCKDB_SERVICE_URL) were missing
  • A separate .env.production.example already existed

Closes #260
