# Development Setup Guide

## Prerequisites

- Python (version 3.10+)
- PostgreSQL (version 13+)
- Git

## Database Setup

1. Install PostgreSQL and create a database named `calminer`.

2. Create schema `bricsium_platform`:

   ```sql
   CREATE SCHEMA bricsium_platform;
   ```

3. Load the schema from `structure.sql`:

   ```bash
   psql -d calminer -f structure.sql
   ```

## Backend Setup

1. Clone the repo.
2. Create a virtual environment: `python -m venv .venv`
3. Activate it: `.venv\Scripts\activate` (Windows) or `source .venv/bin/activate` (Linux/Mac)
4. Install dependencies: `pip install -r requirements.txt`
5. Set up environment variables (e.g., DB connection string in .env).
6. Run migrations if any.
7. Start server: `python main.py` or `uvicorn main:app --reload`

## Frontend Setup

(TBD - add when implemented)

## Running Locally

- Backend: `uvicorn main:app --reload`
- Frontend: (TBD)

## Testing
