+
+```bash
+# Run all tests
+uv run pytest
+
+# Run specific test modules
+uv run pytest tests/test_models.py
+uv run pytest tests/test_parser.py
+
+# Run with coverage

+uv run ruff check
+
+# Format code
+uv run ruff format
+
+# Fix auto-fixable issues
+uv run ruff check --fix
+```
+
+## Security Considerations
+
+- **Sudo handling**: Secure elevation only when entering edit mode
+- **File validation**: Comprehensive input validation and sanitization
+- **Atomic operations**: Safe file writing to prevent corruption
+- **Backup system**: Automatic backups before any modifications
+- **Permission boundaries**: Clear separation between read and edit operations
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+**Permission denied when entering edit mode:**
+```bash
+# Ensure you can run sudo
+sudo -v
+
+# Check file permissions
+ls -la /etc/hosts
+```
+
+**Configuration not saving:**
+```bash
+# Ensure config directory exists
+mkdir -p ~/.config/hosts-manager
+
+# Check directory permissions
+ls -la ~/.config/
+```
+
+**Application won't start:**
+```bash
+# Check Python version
+python3 --version
+
+# Verify uv installation
+uv --version
+
+# Install dependencies
+uv sync
+```
