## ⏳ Remaining Steps (Require Database Access)

### Database Setup
1. **Configure PostgreSQL connection:**
   - Update `backend/.env` with correct `DATABASE_URL`
   - See `DATABASE_SETUP.md` for options

2. **Run migrations:**
   ```bash
   cd backend
   npm run prisma:migrate
   ```

3. **Initialize database:**
   ```bash
   npm run setup:db
   ```

4. **Create admin user:**
   ```bash
   npm run setup:admin
   ```

### Start Services

After database is configured:

1. **Start backend:**
   ```bash
   cd backend
   npm run dev
   ```

2. **Start frontend:**
   ```bash
   cd frontend
   npm run dev
   ```

## 📋 Quick Reference

### Database Connection Options

**Option 1: Docker (Easiest)**
```bash
docker-compose up -d postgres
# Then update .env: DATABASE_URL="postgresql://asle:asle_password@localhost:5432/asle?schema=public"
```

**Option 2: Local PostgreSQL**
```bash
sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE DATABASE asle;"
# Then update .env with your credentials
```

**Option 3: Existing PostgreSQL**
```bash
# Create database with your user
psql -U your_user -c "CREATE DATABASE asle;"
# Update .env with your connection string
```

### Current Status

- **Backend:** Ready (needs database)
- **Frontend:** Ready
- **Database:** Needs configuration
- **Services:** Ready to start after DB setup

## 🚀 Next Actions
