3. Environment Setup:

Ensure that you have JavaFX set up in your IDE. You may need to manually configure JavaFX if it is not bundled with your IDE. Refer to the JavaFX installation guide if necessary.

• For IntelliJ IDEA or Eclipse:
  Add the JavaFX SDK to your project libraries. Set the VM options to include JavaFX modules like:

  --module-path "path-to-javafx-sdk/lib" --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml

4. Database Setup:

1. Modify Database Credentials:

   • Open the DatabaseUsers.java file located in your project folder.

   • Find the following lines and update them with your MySQL username and password:

     String jdbcUsername = "root";  // MySQL username
     String jdbcPassword = "root";  // MySQL password
     String jdbcURL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/cafeteria_db";  // Database URL

   • Replace "root" with your actual MySQL username and password. Example:

     String jdbcUsername = "your_username";  // MySQL username
     String jdbcPassword = "your_password";  // MySQL password
     String jdbcURL = "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/cafeteria_db";  // Database URL

2. Save the file after modifying the credentials.

5. Run the Application:

To run the application, follow these steps:

1. Open a terminal or command prompt in the directory where cafe.jar is located.

2. Use the following command to run the application:

   java --module-path "your_lib_file_directory" --add-modules javafx.controls,javafx.fxml -jar cafe.jar
   
   

3. Run the server (for chat functionality or backend processes).

4. Run the Admin and Client sections of the application as needed.
