4. Environment variables and secrets management
5. Step-by-step deployment instructions for each component
6. How to test the deployed tool
7. Monitoring and alerting setup
8. Fallback plan if deployment fails during the hackathon
9. A pre-deployment checklist
10. Common deployment mistakes and how to avoid them

Keep the deployment process simple and achievable within a 24-48 hour hackathon.
Focus on getting a working demo as early as possible.
Ensure all deployment is legal and ethical (lab environment only).
