# Issue #29 — Add `make` targets for common developer commands

Hi @Devnil434
I’d like to work on this issue.
I can add the root-level Makefile with the required targets (install, test, lint, coverage, up, down, demo, clean, help) and update the README quick-start workflow accordingly.

Please assign this issue to me.
