+
+## Features
+
+- Generate HTML email invitations with customizable fields
+- Real-time preview of email template
+- Client-side form validation
+- Copy-to-clipboard functionality
+- Responsive design with accessibility support
+- Minimalist, ADHD-friendly interface
+
+## Tech Stack
+
+- **Backend:** Python 3.10+, Flask
+- **Templating:** Jinja2
+- **Frontend:** Vanilla HTML/CSS/JS
+- **Testing:** pytest
+- **CI/CD:** GitHub Actions
+
+## Installation
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+   ```bash
+   git clone <repository-url>
+   cd 07_email_template_generator
+   ```
+
+2. Set up the virtual environment:
+   ```bash
+   python -m venv venv
+   source venv/bin/activate
+   ```
+
+3. Install dependencies:
+   ```bash
+   pip install -r requirements.txt
+   ```
+
+4. Set up environment variables:
+   ```bash
+   cp .env.example .env
+   # Edit .env with your configuration
+   ```

+
+## Usage
+
+1. Navigate to the generate page
+2. Fill out the form with event details:
+   - Event Title (required)
+   - Date & Time (required)
+   - Location (required)
+   - Description (required)
+   - Image URL (optional)
+   - Button Text (required)
+   - Button URL (required)
+   - Next Event Text (optional)
+   - Next Event URL (optional)
+3. Click "Preview" to see a preview of the email
+4. Click "Generate Email" to submit the form
+5. Use "Copy HTML to Clipboard" to copy the generated HTML
+
+## Testing
+
+Run the tests with pytest:
+
+```bash
+pytest
+```
+
+Run tests with coverage:
+
+```bash
+pytest --cov=app
+```
+
+## Code Quality
+
+Lint with flake8:
+
+```bash
+flake8 app/ --count --select=E9,F63,F7,F82 --show-source --statistics
+```
+
+Format with black:
+
+```bash
+black app/
+```
+
+Sort imports with isort:
+
+```bash
+isort app/
+```
+
+## CI/CD Pipeline
+
+The project uses GitHub Actions for continuous integration and deployment:
+
+1. Trigger: Push to `main` or `develop`, or pull requests
+2. Environment: Python 3.10+ on Ubuntu latest
+3. Steps:
+   - Checkout repository
+   - Set up Python environment
+   - Install dependencies
+   - Run linting (flake8, black, isort)
+   - Execute tests (pytest)
+   - Build & deploy to staging (optional)
+   - Notify via Slack/Discord on success/failure
+
+## Accessibility
+
+The application is designed with ADHD-friendly principles:
+
+- High contrast mode support
+- Clear visual hierarchy
+- Minimal distractions
+- Clear feedback on actions
+- Keyboard navigation support

+# Café Bach Email Generator – Project Instructions
+
+## 📖 Project Overview
+A Flask-based web application that generates beautifully formatted HTML invitation emails for internal events at Café Bach (Aidshilfe). Users fill out a simple form (title, date, location, description, image URL, button link, next event details), and the app renders a clean, minimalist HTML email template matching the provided design.
+
+## 🛠 Tech Stack
+- **Backend:** Python 3.10+, Flask
+- **Templating:** Jinja2 (for HTML email generation)
+- **Frontend:** Vanilla HTML/CSS (minimalist, text-focused layout)
+- **Image Handling:** URL input (optional)
+- **Testing:** pytest, Flask-Testing
+- **CI/CD:** GitHub Actions
+
+IMPORTANT INSTRUCTION: THE TERMINAL IS ALREADY IN THE VIRTUAL ENVORIONMENT DO NEVER ATTEMPT TO ACTIVATE OR CREATE A VIRTUAL ENVIRONMENT, IF YOU NEED ANY OF THAT PLEASE ASK!

+
+## ✅ Task List & Roadmap
+
+### Phase 1: Core Setup & Form UI
+- [x] Initialize Flask app with app factory pattern
+- [x] Create HTML form with fields: title, date/time, location, description, image URL (optional), button text, button URL, next event text, next event URL
+- [x] Implement minimalist CSS matching the provided template style
+- [x] Add client-side validation & preview toggle
+
+### Phase 2: Backend Generation Logic
+- [ ] Build Jinja2 email template matching `termplate.html` structure
+- [ ] Connect form data to template placeholders
+- [ ] Implement email preview generation endpoint (`/preview`)
+- [ ] Add copy-to-clipboard functionality for generated HTML
+
+### Phase 3: Enhancements & UX
+- [ ] Add image upload/URL validation
+- [ ] Implement responsive preview viewer
+- [ ] Add PDF export option (optional)
+- [ ] Cache frequently used templates (optional)
+
+### Phase 4: Testing & Documentation
+- [x] Write unit tests for form validation & template rendering
+- [x] Add integration tests for preview endpoint
+- [x] Document API endpoints & setup steps in `README.md`
+- [x] Perform accessibility & contrast checks (ADHD-friendly design)
+
+## 🔄 CI/CD Pipeline (GitHub Actions)
+
+### Workflow: `.github/workflows/ci-cd.yml`
+1. **Trigger:** Push to `main` or `develop`, or pull requests
+2. **Environment:** Python 3.10+ on Ubuntu latest
+3. **Steps:**
+   - Checkout repository
+   - Set up Python environment
+   - Install dependencies (`requirements.txt`)
+   - Run linting (flake8, black, isort)
+   - Execute tests (`pytest --cov=app`)
+   - Build & deploy to staging (optional)
+   - Notify via Slack/Discord on success/failure
+
+### Key Configuration:
+```yaml
+name: CI/CD Pipeline
+on:
+  push:
+    branches: [main, develop]
+  pull_request:
+    branches: [main]
