Setup Notes

• Set MONGODB_URI to point at your MongoDB instance.
• The app uses sessions for authentication and Mongoose for persistence.
• Use npm start for production-style startup.
• Use npm run dev during development with automatic restarts.

Developer options:

• ADMIN_EMAIL / ADMIN_PASSWORD: set admin credentials for the seeded admin user.
• RESET_DB=true: when set, the app will wipe and reseed sample data on each startup (useful for demos).

Stay Tuned!

This repository will evolve as we build and refine our online presence. We're excited about this initial phase and look forward to sharing our progress.
