🧠 How MVC Is Implemented

Component	Role
Model	Handles all database logic and queries
View	Displays the frontend (HTML/PHP templates)
Controller	Bridges the model and view; handles all request logic

🛣 Example Workflow

User submits loan request → Controller validates and forwards → Model inserts into DB → Admin views it → On approval, model updates user balance → View updates UI.

---

🚧 Future Enhancements

• 💸 Money transfer between users
• 🛠️ Admin dashboard with full banking control
• 💳 Card approval and user-side card management
