🛠️ Installation & Setup

To run MyDay Hub locally on your development machine, follow the steps below:

1. Prerequisites

• Operating System: Windows 10/11
• IDE: Visual Studio 2019/2022 with .NET Desktop Development workload installed.
• Database: Microsoft SQL Server Express (LocalDB or SQLEXPRESS instance).

2. Database Configuration

1. Open SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) or your preferred SQL Server explorer.
2. Create a database named Project.
3. Execute the following SQL queries to initialize the required tables:

-- Create Users Table
CREATE TABLE Users (
    Username NVARCHAR(50) PRIMARY KEY,
    Password NVARCHAR(255) NOT NULL
);

-- Create Tasks Table
CREATE TABLE Tasks (
    TaskID INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
    Username NVARCHAR(50) FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES Users(Username) ON DELETE CASCADE,
    TaskName NVARCHAR(MAX) NOT NULL
);

-- Create Gallery / Image Table
CREATE TABLE Image (
    ID INT IDENTITY(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
    Username NVARCHAR(50) FOREIGN KEY REFERENCES Users(Username) ON DELETE CASCADE,
    Imagename NVARCHAR(150),
    Image VARBINARY(MAX) NOT NULL
);

4. If your SQL Server Express instance name differs from ASD\SQLEXPRESS, update the connection string inside the constructor of the DB controller classes:
   • Login_DB.cs
   • Todo_DB.cs
   • Gallery_DB.cs

3. Build & Run

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/PTharanan/MyDay-Hub-APPLICATION.git

3. Restore NuGet packages if prompted.
4. Set the solution configuration to Debug or Release and click Start / Run.
