- Refactored database initialization to handle demo-specific passwords and multi-entity creation in demo mode.
- Added `demo_data.json` with sample organizations and users for better demo showcase.
- Introduced `.env.demo` to simplify environment setup for demo scenarios.
- Updated `.gitignore` to include `.env.demo` while keeping other `.env` files excluded.
- Added `DEMO_MODE` to backend configuration with relaxed security support for specific demo accounts.
- Updated password validators to allow predefined weak passwords in demo mode.
- Auto-fill login forms with demo credentials via query parameters for improved demo accessibility.
- Introduced demo user creation logic during database initialization if `DEMO_MODE` is enabled.
- Replaced `img` tags with `next/image` for consistent and optimized visuals in branding elements.
- Refined footer, header, and layout components to incorporate improved logo handling.
- Introduced `pyproject.toml` to centralize backend tool configurations (e.g., Ruff, mypy, coverage, pytest).
- Replaced Black, isort, and Flake8 with Ruff for linting, formatting, and import sorting.
- Updated `requirements.txt` to include Ruff and remove replaced tools.
- Added `Makefile` to streamline development workflows with commands for linting, formatting, type-checking, testing, and cleanup.
- Added `init_db.py` to handle async database initialization with the creation of the first superuser if configured.
- Introduced comprehensive tests for session management APIs, including session listing, revocation, and cleanup.
- Enhanced CRUD session logic with UUID utilities and improved error handling.
- Deleted `database_async.py`, `base_async.py`, and `organization_async.py` modules due to deprecation and unused references across the project.
- Improved overall codebase clarity and minimized redundant functionality by removing unused async database logic, CRUD utilities, and organization-related operations.
- Migrated database sessions and operations to `AsyncSession` for full async support.
- Updated all service methods and dependencies (`get_db` to `get_async_db`) to support async logic.
- Refactored admin, user, organization, session-related CRUD methods, and routes with await syntax.
- Improved consistency and performance with async SQLAlchemy patterns.

- Introduced endpoints for user management, including CRUD operations, pagination, and password management.
- Added new schema validations for user updates, password strength, pagination, and standardized error responses.
- Integrated custom exception handling for a consistent API error experience.
- Refined CORS settings: restricted methods and allowed headers, added header exposure, and preflight caching.
- Optimized database: added indexes on `is_active` and `is_superuser` fields, updated column types, enforced constraints, and set defaults.
- Updated `Dockerfile` to improve security by using a non-root user and adding a health check for the application.
- Enhanced tests for database initialization, user operations, and exception handling to ensure better coverage.
- Introduced `docker-compose.deploy.yml` for deployment scenarios with pre-built Docker images.
- Added `auth_test_utils.py` to simplify authentication testing in FastAPI.
- Implemented `security.py` for token-based operations like file uploads and password resets.
- Created `init_db.py` for database initialization and superuser creation during startup.
