 # deploy.sh – Bygg och starta om recipe-app

+#   ./deploy.sh --backend        – bygg bara backend
+#   ./deploy.sh --flutter        – bygg bara flutter
+#   ./deploy.sh --importer       – bygg bara importer
+#   ./deploy.sh --seed           – kör seed (körs ej per default)
+#   ./deploy.sh --backend --seed – kombinera flaggor fritt
