make dev/init ## runs compose in dev mode

would give you an "initialized" data, ready to start working on. When the project has some data in it, I consider it a closer reflection of prod. If you can (data is not sensible), you can update the fixtures with data from prod.

I once was consulting for a dysfunctional team and everyone having different test data drawn from prod made reproducing even easy bugs hard and impossible for more complicated bugs.
