🚀 Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+ installed
• A Supabase account (Sign up free)

Installation

1. Clone and install dependencies

   npm install

2. Set up Supabase

   • Create a new project on Supabase
   • Go to the SQL Editor
   • Copy contents from supabase-schema.sql and execute it
   • This creates tables and demo users

3. Configure environment variables

   Create .env.local in the root directory:

   NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL=your-supabase-project-url
   NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=your-supabase-anon-key

   Find these values in: Supabase Dashboard → Project Settings → API

4. Run the development server

   npm run dev

   Open http://localhost:3000

🧪 Demo Accounts

• Patient: patient1 / password123
• Doctor: doctor1 / password123
