 ### Configuration
 
-1. Set up your `.env` file with the necessary environment variables:
+1. Create a `.env` file with the necessary environment variables:
+
     ```env
     SECRET_KEY=your_secret_key
     DATABASE_URL=postgresql://username:password@localhost:5432/db
     ```
-    Replace `your_secret_key` with a strong secret key. Update the database URL with your actual credentials and database name.
 
-2. Configure PostgreSQL:
-    Refer to the `manage_db.py` script for detailed instructions:
+    Replace `your_secret_key` with a strong secret key, and update the database URL with your own credentials.
+
+2. **Database Migrations (Recommended):**  
+   You can manage your database schema using **Alembic**. This allows you to create and apply migrations easily without manually configuring PostgreSQL. Example commands:
+
+    ```bash
+    alembic revision --autogenerate -m "Initial migration"
+    alembic upgrade head
+    ```
+
+3. If you prefer, the `manage_db.py` script is still available for database management:
+
     ```bash
     python manage_db.py -h
     ```
 
+
 ### Running the Application
