Important: Before running the project, you need to set up the database with initial data. To do this, upload the file data-db.sql to the Docker PostgreSQL container under "Files" and then execute the following command in the Docker terminal:

psql -h localhost -p 5432 -U postgres-user -d destinations_catalogue_db -f data-db.sql

You may need to run this command two or three times until there is data in the table "explore_attraction".
