   CREATE DATABASE quotes_db;
   CREATE USER quoteuser WITH PASSWORD 'your_password';
   GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE quotes_db TO quoteuser;
   \q
   ```

2. **Run database migrations**
   ```bash
   psql -U quoteuser -d quotes_db -f init.sql
   psql -U quoteuser -d quotes_db -f add_invoices.sql
   ```

3. **Install dependencies**
   ```bash
   npm install
   ```

4. **Configure environment**

## Troubleshooting / Fehlerbehebung

### Database connection fails / Datenbankverbindung fehlgeschlagen
- Check PostgreSQL is running: `sudo systemctl status postgresql`
- Verify credentials in `.env` file
- Ensure user has permissions: `GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA public TO quoteuser;`

### Port 3000 already in use / Port 3000 bereits belegt
- Change `PORT` in `.env` file
- Or stop the service using port 3000

### PDF generation fails / PDF-Generierung fehlgeschlagen
- Puppeteer requires Chromium
- On Ubuntu/Debian: `sudo apt-get install chromium-browser`
- On Alpine/Docker: Already configured in Dockerfile

### Permission errors / Berechtigungsfehler
- Ensure `public/uploads` directory exists and is writable
- Run: `chmod 755 public/uploads`

## Production Deployment / Produktions-Deployment

### Using PM2 (Recommended / Empfohlen)

```bash
# Install PM2
npm install -g pm2

# Start application
pm2 start server.js --name quote-system

# Save PM2 configuration
pm2 save

# Auto-start on boot
pm2 startup
```

### Using systemd

Create `/etc/systemd/system/quote-system.service`:

```ini
[Unit]
Description=Quote & Invoice System
After=network.target postgresql.service

[Service]
Type=simple
User=your_user
WorkingDirectory=/path/to/quote-invoice-system
Environment="NODE_ENV=production"
ExecStart=/usr/bin/node server.js
Restart=on-failure

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
```

Then:
```bash
sudo systemctl enable quote-system
sudo systemctl start quote-system
```

## Security Recommendations / Sicherheitsempfehlungen

1. **Use strong database passwords / Starke Datenbank-Passwörter verwenden**
2. **Run behind reverse proxy (nginx) / Hinter Reverse-Proxy betreiben**
3. **Enable HTTPS / HTTPS aktivieren**
4. **Regular backups / Regelmäßige Backups**
5. **Keep dependencies updated / Abhängigkeiten aktuell halten**

## Backup / Sicherung

### Database Backup / Datenbank-Backup
```bash
pg_dump -U quoteuser quotes_db > backup_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
```

### Restore / Wiederherstellen
```bash
psql -U quoteuser quotes_db < backup_20260131.sql
```
