+# Contributing to Celerp
+
+Issues and PRs welcome. This guide covers the development workflow.
+
+## Contribution terms
+
+Celerp is multi-licensed (see `LICENSING.md`). What the public *receives* depends on the component
+(BUSL-1.1 core, MIT modules, proprietary layer). What you *grant us* when contributing is governed as
+follows:
+
+- **Anything accepted into an official Celerp repository** - including the MIT modules - requires a signed
+  **Contributor License Agreement** (`CLA.md`). The module stays MIT for everyone downstream; the CLA only
+  governs the rights you grant Celerp (so we can keep multi-licensing, move code between layers, and offer
+  commercial terms). Open an issue before substantial work and we will arrange signing.
+- **Third-party modules you do not submit upstream** (e.g. your own marketplace modules) need no CLA - a
+  Developer Certificate of Origin sign-off (`git commit -s`) is sufficient for those. The MIT modules are
+  the recommended starting point: fork one, rename it (see `legal/TRADEMARK.md`), and license your derivative
+  however you wish.
+
+**How CLA acceptance works.** Contributions to official Celerp repositories require a one-time CLA
+acceptance per user. If you haven't accepted yet, you'll be linked to a page that shows the agreement and
+records your acceptance so that we know that you've read our rules and expectations. After that you can
+contribute freely.
+
+Trademarks are not licensed by any code license; see `legal/TRADEMARK.md`.
+
+## Environment variables
+
+| Variable | Default | Notes |
+|----------|---------|-------|
+| `DATABASE_URL` | _(required)_ | `postgresql+asyncpg://user:pass@localhost:5432/dbname` |
+| `JWT_SECRET` | _(required)_ | Fatal on startup if unset or default in production |
+| `ALLOW_INSECURE_JWT` | `false` | Set `true` in dev/CI |
+| `CELERP_PUBLIC_URL` | _(optional)_ | Base URL for share links |
+| `MODULE_DIR` | `default_modules` | Module package directory |
+| `ENABLED_MODULES` | _(all)_ | Comma-separated list to load |
+
+## CLI commands (pip install)
+
+```bash
+celerp init             # first-time setup: DB + migrations + config, then launches the servers
+celerp init --no-start  # same setup, but exit WITHOUT launching (service-managed/headless)
+celerp start            # launch API + UI (e.g. from systemd, after `init --no-start`)
+celerp migrate    # apply pending migrations after an upgrade
+celerp status     # show config, DB connection, migration state
+celerp demo       # seed demo data
+celerp upgrade    # pip install --upgrade celerp + migrate
+```
+
+### Init flags
+
+| Flag | Default | Notes |
+|------|---------|-------|
+| `--db-url` | `postgresql+asyncpg://celerp:celerp@localhost:5432/celerp` | PostgreSQL connection URL |
+| `--api-port` | `8000` | API server port |
+| `--ui-port` | `8080` | UI server port |
+| `--cloud-token` | _(empty)_ | Celerp Connect token (optional) |
+| `--force` | off | Overwrite existing config |
+| `--yes` / `-y` | off | Skip the `--force` wipe confirmation (non-interactive) |
+| `--no-start` | off | Set up, then exit WITHOUT launching servers (service-managed/headless) |
+| `--embedded` | off | Force the bundled PostgreSQL even if a server is reachable (cannot combine with `--db-url`) |
+| `--no-embedded` | off | Never fall back to the bundled PostgreSQL; require an external server |
+
+To change ports after init, edit `~/.config/celerp/config.toml` directly.
+
+### External vs embedded PostgreSQL
+
+`celerp init` picks the database automatically, and **an existing server always wins**:
+
+1. `--db-url` given → that external server (no detection).
+2. else a PostgreSQL server reachable on `localhost:5432` → use it (as root, init
+   provisions the role/database via `sudo -u postgres psql`; otherwise it prints the
+   `CREATE USER`/`CREATE DATABASE` to run).
+3. else the **bundled** PostgreSQL 17 — a self-contained cluster under
+   `~/.config/celerp/pgdata`, started from binaries shipped in the
+   [`celerp-postgres`](https://github.com/celerp/celerp-postgres) wheel. No `sudo`, no
+   system service. Available on Linux x86_64/arm64 (glibc and musl/Alpine) and Windows
+   x64, any CPython; on macOS 26+ opt in with `pip install celerp-postgres`. Elsewhere
+   init asks you to install PostgreSQL.
+
+Override the detection with `--embedded` / `--no-embedded`. The chosen mode is written to
+`config.toml` as `[database] embedded = true|<absent>` and preserved across `--force`
+re-inits, so an external install never silently switches to the bundled cluster.
+
+**Moving bundled data to an external server** (e.g. outgrowing single-machine): dump from
+the bundled cluster and restore into the target, using the bundled tools so versions match.
+
+```bash
+BIN=$(celerp status >/dev/null; python -c "from celerp import embedded_pg; print(embedded_pg.bin_dir())")
+"$BIN/pg_dump" "$(python -c "from celerp import embedded_pg,pathlib; from celerp.config import config_path; print(embedded_pg.ensure_cluster(config_path().parent).replace('+asyncpg',''))")" \
+  | psql "postgresql://celerp:celerp@newhost:5432/celerp"
+celerp init --force --db-url "postgresql+asyncpg://celerp:celerp@newhost:5432/celerp"
+```
+
+### Run as a service (systemd)
+
+`celerp init` launches the servers and blocks (good for the one-command desktop
+flow). For a headless box where a process manager owns the lifecycle, set up with
+`--no-start` and let systemd run `celerp start`.
+
+Install Celerp into a virtual environment. `celerp start` installs updates itself,
+into the service user's Celerp config folder beside its data, so the install can stay
+root-owned. When the service user cannot write to that folder, the update card shows
+the pip command to run instead.
+
+```bash
+sudo useradd --system --create-home celerp
+sudo python3 -m venv /opt/celerp
+sudo /opt/celerp/bin/pip install celerp
+```
+
+```bash
+# First boot against a system PostgreSQL: provision DB + migrations + config, then
+# exit (do not block). Run as root so init can create the role/database.
+sudo /opt/celerp/bin/celerp init --no-start \
+  --db-url "postgresql+asyncpg://celerp:<password>@localhost:5432/celerp" \
+  --api-port 8000 --ui-port 8080
+```
+
+Prefer the bundled database? Drop `--db-url` (and the `sudo` — the bundled cluster needs
+neither) and run `celerp init --no-start` as the service user. The cluster then lives under
+that user's `~/.config/celerp/pgdata`, and the systemd unit needs no `postgresql.service`
+dependency.
+
+```ini
+# /etc/systemd/system/celerp.service
+[Unit]
+Description=Celerp
+# Drop the postgresql.service dependency line when using the bundled database.
+After=network.target postgresql.service
+
+[Service]
+ExecStart=/opt/celerp/bin/celerp start
+Restart=on-failure
+User=celerp
+
+[Install]
+WantedBy=multi-user.target
+```
+
+```bash
+sudo systemctl enable --now celerp
+```
+
+New versions install automatically between 03:00 and 05:00 in the company's time
+zone. Each update takes a backup first and is undone if the new version does not
+start. The owner can turn this off in the update card in the notifications panel, or
+set it in `config.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[updates]
+auto = false
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Error | Fix |
+|-------|-----|
+| `fe_sendauth: no password supplied` | Run `set -a && source .env && set +a` before alembic |
+| `password authentication failed` | Run `ALTER USER celerp WITH PASSWORD 'devpass';` via psql |
+| `role "celerp" does not exist` | Run the `CREATE USER` command from README |
+| `FATAL: JWT_SECRET is set to the default` | Generate with `openssl rand -hex 32` or set `ALLOW_INSECURE_JWT=true` |
+| `Directory 'static' does not exist` | Run uvicorn from the repo root, not a subdirectory |
+| `System already bootstrapped` | Drop and recreate the DB, or `DELETE FROM users;` via psql |
+
+## Module system
+
+Each module is a self-contained Python package under `default_modules/`. A module registers:
+
+- **API routes** via a FastAPI router
+- **Projections** that materialize ledger events into queryable state
+- **UI routes** via FastHTML
+- **Nav slots** for sidebar entries
+
+To add a new module, follow the pattern in any existing module (e.g. `celerp-inventory`). Modules are discovered and loaded at startup based on `ENABLED_MODULES`.
+
+## Coding style
+
+- DRY, SOLID, KISS
+- Small pure functions, explicit contracts, deterministic behavior
+- Tests use SQLite in-memory - no Postgres required
+- Name test files after the module they test
+- Use `conftest.py` for shared fixtures
+
+## License
+
+Celerp is multi-licensed (see [LICENSING.md](LICENSING.md)). Your contribution is governed by the
+**Contribution terms** at the top of this file (a signed CLA for anything accepted upstream, including
+the MIT modules; DCO for third-party modules you keep). License headers follow the per-path policy in

+**Double-click. No account. No credit card. Your computer securely becomes the server for your office**
+
+Or install via pip:
+
+```bash
+pip install celerp
+celerp init        # sets up the database and launches Celerp
+```
+
+Open **http://localhost:8080**. Done.
+Your office can securely access the system at your IP address :8080.
+
+No PostgreSQL to install: `celerp init` uses your existing PostgreSQL server if one is
+running, and otherwise starts a self-contained bundled database — no `sudo`, no system
+service. Point it at a specific server with `celerp init --db-url postgresql+asyncpg://…`.
+
+Running headless or under a process manager? Use `celerp init --no-start` to set up
+without launching, then have your service run `celerp start` — see
+[Run as a service (systemd)](CONTRIBUTING.md#run-as-a-service-systemd).
+Updates install automatically overnight; the owner can turn that off from the update
+card in the notifications panel.

+## What's inside
+
+- Track inventory across locations, scan barcodes, print labels
+- Send invoices, purchase orders, quotations, credit notes
+- Double-entry accounting with chart of accounts, P&L, balance sheet
+- Connect Shopify, WooCommerce, QuickBooks, Xero
+- Manufacturing - BOMs, production orders, merge/split/transform
+- CRM - contacts, pipeline, memos, activity feed
+- Recurring subscriptions with automatic invoicing
+- CSV import/export everything - idempotent, audited, column-mapped
+- Multi-company from one install
+- Role-based permissions - five access levels (viewer, operator, manager, admin, owner) for controlled employee access
+- Works offline, no internet required
+
+---
+
+## How it works
+
+Celerp runs on your machine and keeps its primary database local. Optional Connect features can relay remote access or send selected data to Celerp cloud services.
+
+- **No setup** - the desktop app bundles Postgres, runs migrations on launch, opens in your browser
+- **No lock-in** - your data stays in a standard Postgres database you control
+- **Teams** - run as a local server, teammates connect over the LAN

+
+## Modules
+
+Every business domain is a self-contained module. The full set ships with the download:
+
+| Module | What it does |
+|--------|-------------|
+| `celerp-inventory` | Items, stock levels, locations, barcode scanning, valuation |
+| `celerp-contacts` | Contacts, addresses, tags, notes, file attachments |
+| `celerp-docs` | Invoices, POs, quotations, credit notes, receipts |
+| `celerp-accounting` | Chart of accounts, journal entries, P&L, balance sheet |
+| `celerp-reports` | AR/AP aging, sales, purchases, inventory valuation |
+| `celerp-subscriptions` | Recurring billing, auto-invoice generation |
+| `celerp-manufacturing` | BOMs, production orders, merge/split/transform |
+| `celerp-labels` | Label printing, barcode generation |
+| `celerp-verticals` | Industry presets - configure for your business type on first run |
+
+The onboarding wizard lets you pick your industry. Modules can be toggled any time at **Settings > Modules**.
+
+### Build your own
+
+> "My vision for Celerp is that anyone with AI coding tools can describe what their business needs and get a module that imports right into the system."
+>
+> Noah Severs, Founder
+
+Every feature above is a module on one loader API, and you can build against the same API. A module is a Python package you drop into Celerp's `modules/` folder; it adds its own tables, API routes, and UI pages, no fork or build step.
+
+- [**celerp-module-template**](https://github.com/celerp/celerp-module-template) - a working example module you can run in about ten minutes, plus a lint script
+- [**Build a module**](https://www.celerp.com/docs/modules) - the guide
+- [**community-modules**](https://github.com/celerp/community-modules) - a directory of community-built modules, and how to list yours
+
+---
+
+## Architecture
+
+- **Event-sourced** - every change is an immutable ledger entry, projections materialize queryable state
+- **Modular** - each domain is a plugin with its own models, routes, and projections
+- **Python/FastAPI** backend, **FastHTML** UI, embedded **PostgreSQL**
+- SQLite in-memory for tests - no external dependencies to run the test suite
+
+---
+
+## Development
+
+```bash
+git clone git@github.com:celerp/celerp.git
+cd celerp
+python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
+pip install -e ".[dev]"
+celerp init   # creates DB, runs migrations, starts servers
+```
+
+`celerp init` boots a bundled PostgreSQL when no server is running, so no `sudo` and no
+system Postgres are required. To develop against your own server instead, pass
+`--db-url postgresql+asyncpg://…`.
+
+Open **http://localhost:8080**. Run tests with `pytest tests/`.
