+git clone <repo-url>
+cd Healvista--hospital-management-system
+```
+
+### 2. Backend Setup
+```bash
+cd back_end
+npm install
+# Configure your .env file with DB credentials (see config/db.js)
+npm start
+```
+
+### 3. Frontend Setup
+```bash

+
+---
+
+## 📝 Usage Notes
+- **Role-based routing:** Users are redirected to their dashboard after login.
+- **Admin:** Full access to all management features.
+- **Doctor:** Can view/manage their appointments, patients, labs, and more.
+- **Patient:** Can view appointments, doctors, medicines, labs, and request ambulance.
+- **Medicines:** All patients see all available medicines (no patient-specific filtering yet).
+- **API Proxy:** The frontend uses a Vite proxy to connect to the backend (`/api/*` routes).
+
+---
+
+## 📚 Customization & Extending
+- To add patient-specific medicines, implement a patient-medicine relationship in the backend and expose an endpoint like `/api/pharmacy/patient/:id`.
+- To add more granular permissions, implement route protection using a PrivateRoute/ProtectedRoute component.
+- Easily extend dashboards with more widgets, analytics, or management features.
