 # Planka server
+
+This repository contains a Sails.js application that can be run without using `sails lift`. 
+Instead, you can start the server using `node app.js` or other process managers.
+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Prerequisites
+Make sure you have the following installed:
+- [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) (LTS recommended)
+- [NPM](https://www.npmjs.com/) or [Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/)
+- [Sails.js](https://sailsjs.com/) (if needed, install globally using `npm install -g sails`)
+
+### Installation
+
+1. Clone the repository:
+   ```sh
+   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/your-repo.git
+   cd your-repo
+   ```
+
+2. Install dependencies:
+   ```sh
+   npm install
+   ```
+
+### Running the Application
+You can start the server using:
+```sh
+node app.js
+```
+Alternatively, you can use process managers like:
+- `npm start`
+- `forever start app.js`
+- `pm2 start app.js`
+- `node debug app.js`
+
+### Configuration
+You can pass command-line arguments and environment variables to customize the server behavior. Example:
+```sh
+NODE_ENV=production node app.js --port=80 --verbose
+```
+For more configuration options, refer to the [Sails.js documentation](https://sailsjs.com/documentation).
+
+## Deployment
+When deploying to a platform like Heroku, ensure that:
+- All dependencies are installed using `npm install --production`.
+- The correct environment variables are set.
+- The process is managed correctly (e.g., using `forever` or `pm2`).
