For Flask:

create a virtual environment:
    `python -m venv venv`
Activate the virtual environment:
    On Windows: `.\venv\Scripts\activate`
    On Unix or MacOS: `source venv/bin/activate`
Install dependencies: `pip install -r requirements.txt`
Run server: `python app.py`
Deactive virtual environment with:
    `deactivate`

For node:

`npm install` after cloning this project to install dependencies (run this while inside the frontend folder)
`npm run dev` inside ./frontend to start vite development server

For database things:

`sqlite3` to open sqlite CLI
`.read create_user_managementDB.sql` to generate user data DB
`.read create_productDB.sql` to generate products DB

`python dataInsertionHelper.py` to generate product DB
`python db_populate.py` to fill user DB

Run these inside ./database to generate a dummy users database that you can use for testing

Have two separate terminals running the Flask server and the vite dev server -- they both need to be running in order to interact (VS code can open multiple terminals)

Time format for DB: YYYY:MM:DD HH:SS

Current tasks:

- Further backend robustness
- Filling out user profile options
- Data analytics, reminders, graphs, etc.
- Admin page
