├── backend-deployment.yaml      # API service with health probes, 2 replicas
├── frontend-configmap.yaml      # Build-time config (VITE_API_URL, VITE_WS_URL)
├── frontend-deployment.yaml     # Nginx-served static site, 2 replicas
└── kustomization.yaml           # Unified deployment orchestration

• Frontend: LoadBalancer on port 80 (external access)
• Backend: ClusterIP on ports 3001/8080 (API/WebSocket, internal only)
• MongoDB: ClusterIP on port 27017 (internal only)

Health Checks:

• Liveness/readiness probes on HTTP endpoints for frontend and backend
