Optional backend configuration:

• CORS_ORIGINS: comma-separated list of allowed frontend origins. Use * only for local development.
• PYTHONUNBUFFERED: set to 1 for clearer container logs.

Health Check

The backend health endpoint is:

Local Development

Start the backend:

cd parental-control-system/backend
DASHBOARD_API_TOKEN=dev-token flask --app main run --host 0.0.0.0 --port 5000

Start the frontend in another terminal:

cd parental-control-system/frontend
npm install
npm start

Use dev-token on the sign-in screen.
