Technical Environment and Setup Readiness Questions

Verify that the candidate can install, configure and operate the development environment and tools required for interviews and day to day work. Confirm familiarity with repository bootstrapping steps, build and test commands, linters and formatters, debugging tools, local services such as databases and mock servers, and the typical workflow for running and contributing code. Evaluate ability to troubleshoot common environment issues, run test suites, and use basic container or virtualization tooling if required for the role.
