1. System Architecture

The system architecture shows how the local app, backend, and web interface interact. The backend handles

APIs for auth, projects, timelogs, and screenshots. All data is stored in a PostgreSQL database.

2. Folder Structure

This structure organizes the backend ([Link] server, routes, models), local Electron app (renderer, preload),

and React web app.

3. Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD)

The ERD outlines how Employee, Project, Task, TimeLog, and Screenshot tables are related. Each Task

links to a Project and Employee. TimeLogs and Screenshots are associated with a Task.
