+# FTC Team 23344 "Technical Turbulence" Website
+
+## Overview
+Flask-based website for FTC Team 23344 with a modern dark theme (#000000 pure black background), comprehensive content management system, and PostgreSQL database integration.
+
+## Recent Changes (October 3, 2025)
+
+### Admin Panel System
+Created a complete admin panel with password-protected access for managing all website content:
+
+**Access:** `/admin/login` (Password: `techturb123`)
+
+**Features:**
+- 📊 **Stats Management**: Edit homepage statistics (seasons, members, awards, competitions)
+- 👥 **Members/Mentors Management**: Add, edit, remove team members and mentors with profile picture uploads
+- 🏆 **Competitions Management**: Add competitions by season with optional images, awards (bullet points), descriptions, event names, and dates
+- 💼 **Sponsors Management**: Add/remove sponsors with logo uploads and website URLs
+
+### Database Integration
+- Migrated all content from hardcoded templates to PostgreSQL database
+- All public pages now pull data dynamically from database
+- Data persists across server restarts
+- Initial data seeded from existing website content
+
+**Database Schema:**
+- `stats` - Homepage statistics
+- `members` - Team members with images, roles, names
+- `mentors` - Mentors/coaches with images, roles, names
+- `competitions` - Competition entries organized by season
+- `sponsors` - Sponsor cards with logos and URLs
+
+### Design Improvements
+- Pure black (#000000) background throughout
+- Cinematic hero section (700px tall) with darkened team image and text overlay
+- Light gray text (gray-300) for paragraph content
+- Reduced top margins on headers (40px instead of 64px)
+- Mobile-responsive with optimized padding (20px/16px)
+- Modern cards with 20px border radius and blue accent hover effects

+
+## Technology Stack
+- **Backend**: Flask (Python)
+- **Database**: PostgreSQL (Neon-backed via Replit)
+- **Session Management**: Flask-Session
+- **File Uploads**: Werkzeug secure_filename
+- **Frontend**: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript
+
+## User Preferences
+- Pure black (#000000) background theme
+- Gray-300 text color for paragraphs (light grayish, not pure white)
+- Preserve hero section layered image design (michiana.png + techturb.gif)
+- Minimal navbar with blur effect
+- Dramatic spacing reduction throughout site
+- Mobile-first responsive design
+
+## Database Connection
+Environment variables automatically configured:
+- `DATABASE_URL`
+- `PGHOST`, `PGPORT`, `PGUSER`, `PGPASSWORD`, `PGDATABASE`
+
+## Security Notes
+- Admin password currently hardcoded (techturb123) - consider moving to environment variable for production
+- Session secret key uses environment variable with fallback
+- File uploads use secure_filename to prevent path traversal
+- Admin routes protected with session-based authentication
+
+## Future Considerations
+- Add admin password management
+- Implement image optimization for uploads
+- Add bulk operations for members/competitions
+- Consider adding revision history for content changes
+- Add export/backup functionality for database content
