+  ```
+2. **Set up the database**:
+	- Run with `docker run -p 7474:7474 -p 7687:7687 -v /home/quirinecker/Downloads/neo4j/data:/data --env=NEO4J_AUTH=none neo4j:latest`
+	- Import via the cypher file that is provided in the moodle course
+3. Run Application:
+	- Install dependencies with `deno install` or alternatively `npm install`
+	- Configure the environment variables in `.env` file.
+	  - Sample file:
+	  ```

+## Features
 
-## 🧞 Commands
+### 1. **Automatic Deletion Notifications**
 
-All commands are run from the root of the project, from a terminal:
+- Deleting any node (e.g., student, professor, lecture) automatically creates a **Notification** node.
 
-| Command                   | Action                                           |
-| :------------------------ | :----------------------------------------------- |
-| `deno install`             | Installs dependencies                            |
-| `deno dev`             | Starts local dev server at `localhost:4321`      |
-| `deno build`           | Build your production site to `./dist/`          |
-| `deno preview`         | Preview your build locally, before deploying     |
-| `deno astro ...`       | Run CLI commands like `astro add`, `astro check` |
-| `deno astro -- --help` | Get help using the Astro CLI                     |
+### 2. **Lecture Participant Management**
 
-## 👀 Want to learn more?
+- **List Participants**: Enter a lecture number to list all participants (students and professors) in **ascending order by name**.
+- **Add Participants**: Add new participants to a lecture.
 
-Feel free to check [our documentation](https://docs.astro.build) or jump into our [Discord server](https://astro.build/chat).
+### 3. **Lecture Search**
+
+- Search for lectures using a **flexible search string**.
+- The string can match:
+  - Professor's name.
+  - Lecture ID.
+  - Lecture topic.
+  - Room.
+  - Date.
+- Returns a list of all matching lectures.
+
+### 4. **Student Grading**
+
+- Search for a student by name or matriculation number.
+- Grade them for an exam **only if they are registered** for that exam.
+- Prevents grading unregistered students.
+
+### 5. **Delete Students**
+
+- Delete a student by:
+  - Matriculation number.
+  - Name (first or last).
+
+### 6. **Relationship Queries**
+
+- **Connection Check (A and B are people)**:
+  - If A and B are **students** in the same lecture → "classmates".
+  - If A and B are **professors** teaching the same lecture → "colleagues".
+  - If no connection exists → "No connection found".
+- **Path Finding (A and B are any nodes)**:
+  - Display **all paths** connecting A and B.
+  - Paths are ordered by length: **shortest first, longest last**.
