 ## Code Contributions
 
-### Setting Up the Project
-
-1. **Fork the Repository**:
-   1. Navigate to the [Schwarz GitHub repository](https://github.com/Schwarz-Official/Schwarz).
-   2. Click the "Fork" button in the top-right corner of the repository's page. This will create a copy of the repository in your GitHub account.
-      
-2. **Clone Your Fork**:
-   1. Open your forked repository on GitHub (it should be at `https://github.com/your-username/Schwarz`).
-   2. Click the "Code" button and copy the URL of your forked repository.
-   3. On your local machine, open your terminal or command prompt.
-   4. Navigate to the directory where you want to clone the repository using the `cd` command.
-   5. Run the following command, replacing `<your-username>` with your GitHub username:
-      ```bash
-      git clone https://github.com/your-username/schwarz-repo.git
-      ```
-
-3. **Set Up Remote Upstream**:
-   1. Change your directory to the cloned repository:
-      ```bash
-      cd Schwarz
-      ```
-
-   2. Add the original Schwarz repository as a remote named "upstream" to stay synced with the latest changes:
-      ```bash
-      git remote add upstream https://github.com/Schwarz-Official/Schwarz.git
-      ```
-
-7. **Install Dependencies**: Schwarz has both frontend (React) and backend (Django) components. First, install the required packages in both the `frontend` and `backend` folders:
-   ```bash
-   # Inside the frontend folder
-   cd frontend
-   npm install
-
-   # Inside the backend folder
-   cd ../backend
-   pip install -r requirements.txt
-   ```
-
-### Running the Project
-
-#### Frontend (React App)
-
-To run the React app, navigate to the `frontend` folder and start the development server:
-
-```bash
-cd frontend
-npm start
-```
-
-This will start the React development server. You can view the app in your browser at `http://localhost:3000`.
-
-#### Backend (Django Server)
-
-To run the Django backend, navigate to the `backend` folder and apply migrations, create a superuser, and then run the server:
-
-```bash
-cd backend
-
-# Apply migrations
-python manage.py migrate
-
-# Create a superuser
-python manage.py createsuperuser
-
-# Run the server
-python manage.py runserver
-```
-
-The Django server will be accessible at `http://localhost:8000`.
