216-216: Consider hyphenating compound modifier.

The heading "First week plan" should be hyphenated as "First-week plan" when the compound modifier precedes a noun. This follows standard English grammar conventions for compound adjectives.

-## 10. First week plan
+## 10. First-week plan

plan" to "First-week plan" in the ONBOARDING.md file so the compound adjective
correctly precedes the noun.

131-135: Add context for Docker setup.

The Docker setup section provides a single command without explaining what it does or mentioning the docker-compose.yml file. Consider adding a brief explanation:

### 4.5 Optional: Docker setup

If you prefer using Docker, the repository includes a `docker-compose.yml` configuration:

```bash
docker-compose up --build -d

This builds and starts the development environment in detached mode.

`7-18`: **Consider removing backticks from section names and adding anchor links.**

The backticks around section names in the table of contents are unconventional. TOCs typically use plain text or markdown links. Consider converting to actual anchor links for better navigation:

```markdown
- [1. Product and repository overview](`#1-product-and-repository-overview`)
- [2. Technical stack](`#2-technical-stack`)

This would allow readers to click and jump directly to each section.

the exact section titles as link text and kebab-case anchors matching the header
text) and ensure anchors match the corresponding headers in the document.

237-237: Consider hyphenating compound modifier.

The phrase "small scoped contribution" should be hyphenated as "small-scoped contribution" when used as a compound modifier.

Make Node.js and Yarn version requirements explicit in prerequisites.

The current documentation lists Node.js without any version specification and mentions Yarn's version requirement only parenthetically. To improve clarity for new engineers, specify versions directly:

- Node.js v16.0.0+
- Yarn v1 or v2.4.2+
- Git

This prevents confusion during setup and ensures compatibility.
