-# CapRover Environment Variables
+# CapRover Deployment Guide — The Grind

-## Backend App (`thegrind-api`)
+## Step 1: Deploy Infrastructure (One-Click Apps)

-### Required
\ No newline at end of file
+In CapRover dashboard, deploy these one-click apps FIRST:
+
+| Service | CapRover App Name | Notes |
+|---------|-------------------|-------|
+| PostgreSQL 16 | `thegrind-db` | Set password during setup |
+| Redis 7 | `thegrind-redis` | Default config is fine |
+| MinIO | `thegrind-minio` | Set root user/password |
+
+> **Important:** Note the internal CapRover hostnames. They follow the pattern:
+> `srv-captain--APP_NAME` (e.g., `srv-captain--thegrind-db`)
+
+---
+
+## Step 2: Create Application Apps
+
+Create two **"Blank"** apps (NOT one-click):
+
+| App Name | Has Persistent Data |
+|----------|-------------------|
+| `thegrind-api` | No |
+| `thegrind` | No |
+
+---
+
+## Step 3: Configure Backend Environment Variables
+
+In CapRover → `thegrind-api` → App Configs → Environment Variables:
