+
+## ✅ Vercel (Frontend) - AUTO-DEPLOYED
+
+**Status**: ✅ **AUTO-DEPLOYED** (via GitHub integration)
+
+### Deployment URL:
+**https://frontend-kohl-one-42.vercel.app**
+
+### How it works:
+1. Every push to `phase-2` branch triggers auto-deploy
+2. Vercel builds Next.js frontend
+3. Deployed to edge network globally
+
+### Environment Variables on Vercel:
+- `NEXT_PUBLIC_API_URL` → Points to backend API
+- Auto-updated from `.env.local`
+
+### Current Status:
+- ✅ Frontend live and accessible
+- ✅ Connected to backend API
+- ✅ All features working
+
+---
+
+## ⚠️ Hugging Face Spaces (Backend) - PARTIAL
+
+**Space URL**: https://huggingface.co/spaces/ammaraak/todo-app
+**Status**: ⚠️ **CONFIG_ERROR** (Needs manual fix)
+
+### Issue:
+- SDK not being detected automatically
+- README YAML not parsed correctly
+- Space showing "CONFIG_ERROR"
+
+### What's Working:
+- ✅ Code pushed to Hugging Face
+- ✅ Environment variables configured:
+  - `DATABASE_URL` (Neon PostgreSQL)
+  - `JWT_SECRET`
+  - `HUGGINGFACE_API_KEY`
+  - `PORT`, `ENV`, etc.
+- ✅ Dockerfile present and valid
+
+### What Needs Manual Fix:
+
+#### Option 1: Update Settings (RECOMMENDED)
+1. Go to: https://huggingface.co/spaces/ammaraak/todo-app/settings
+2. Scroll to "SDK" section
+3. Change "SDK type" to **"Docker"**
+4. Click "Save"
+5. Space will rebuild automatically
+
+#### Option 2: Create New Space
+1. Go to: https://huggingface.co/spaces
+2. Click "Create new Space"
+3. Name: `todo-app-backend-v2`
+4. SDK: **Docker** ✅
+5. Push code:
+```bash
+cd backend
+git remote add hf-new https://huggingface.co/spaces/ammaraak/todo-app-backend-v2
+git push hf-new phase-2:main
+```
