Description

Docker doesn't create a database when it first starts. This leads to database or " no such table" errors when you start the backend service.

Add the following commands to the Dockerfile in backend folder to make and apply database migrations:

python manage.py makemigrations python manage.py migrate

Contributor guide

Research direction
Add the `python manage.py makemigrations` and `python manage.py migrate` commands to the Dockerfile in the backend folder, placing them after the Python dependencies are installed and before the entrypoint.
