• Microsoft SQL Server for database (optional: you can configure another supported database)
• Code editor such as Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code

Installation

1. Clone the TimeCraft repository:

   git clone https://github.com/TimeCraft-App/Back-end.git

2. Navigate to the TimeCraft/Back-end directory:

   cd TimeCraft/Back-end
