# Ignore frontend source/build if not served by backend (but user said Shell is mounted in Dev)
# Assuming for production we might want to copy it if we serve it, or ignore it if Nginx serves it.
# For a simple "all-in-one" container, we might keep it.
# However, `Designer/` seems to be the built frontend assets.
# Let's keep `Designer/` for now as the app mounts it in DEV mode, 
# and user might want to run it similarly or we can configure it.
# But usually node_modules should be ignored if they exist there.
