What is here

• / – home screen for the player
• /play – the "Who is this?" round: choose or say the name, with a ladder of hints and no failure states
• /admin – add family members, photos and voice greetings

Hebrew (default) and English.

Where the family data lives

• With a database (DATABASE_URL or POSTGRES_URL, e.g. Neon added from the Vercel Storage tab): names, photos, voice greetings and progress are stored in Postgres and shared by every device. Tables are created on first use. Access needs the password in ADMIN_PASSWORD, typed once per device; photos and recordings are only served to signed-in devices.
• Without a database: a trial mode with a fictional sample family, kept in the browser only (IndexedDB).

No family photos ever belong in this repository.
