+# Demo Operations
+
+This document describes how to operate the public demo deployment.
+
+## What the demo is for
+
+The demo is intended for public browsing and for guided exploration of a pre-seeded instance.
+
+- The default landing page is informational.
+- The demo includes seeded communities, proposals, delegations, and moderation history.
+- Administrative setup is not part of the public demo experience.
+
+## Services and ports
+
+- Frontend: `http://<host>:4322`
+- Backend API: `http://<host>:3001`
+- Database: not exposed publicly (bound to localhost in VPS deployments)
+
+## Deploy/update (VPS)
+
+From the VPS, in the repo folder:
+
+- Bring up (or update) the demo:
+
+  - `podman compose --env-file compose/.env.demo -f compose/demo.yml -f compose/demo.vps.override.yml up -d --build`
+
+- Pull latest code before rebuilding:
+
+  - `git pull --ff-only`
+
+## Check health
+
+- Backend health endpoint:
+  - `GET /health`
+
+- Check containers:
+  - `podman ps`
+
+- Check logs:
+  - `podman logs likwid-demo-backend`
+  - `podman logs likwid-demo-frontend`
+  - `podman logs likwid-demo-db`
+
+## Reset the demo
+
+Resetting is destructive and recreates the demo database.
+
+- `podman compose --env-file compose/.env.demo -f compose/demo.yml -f compose/demo.vps.override.yml down -v`
+- `podman compose --env-file compose/.env.demo -f compose/demo.yml -f compose/demo.vps.override.yml up -d --build`
+
+## Security notes
+
+- Keep the database port closed to the public internet.
+- Prefer TLS and a reverse proxy once a domain is available.
+- Treat demo credentials as public; the demo is not a private environment.
