What shipped
The backend is not decorative.
User identities, follow relationships, and likes are modeled explicitly so activity discovery can layer on top without schema rewrites.
Ratings are constrained to one through five, categories are enforced by a Postgres enum, and join tables use composite primary keys to prevent duplicate edges.
The home page reads live counts from Neon, so the deployed app proves the database connection instead of hiding it behind local-only scaffolding.
