## 🔄 Next Steps to Complete Setup

### Step 1: Generate Prisma Client
The current issue is that Prisma Client needs to be regenerated to include the new Settings model.

```bash
# Stop the dev server first (Ctrl+C)
npx prisma generate
```

### Step 2: Seed Default Settings
```bash
npx tsx prisma/settingsSeed.ts
```

### Step 3: Restart Development Server
```bash
npm run dev
```

### Step 4: Test Settings System
1. Navigate to `http://localhost:5173/login`
2. Login with admin credentials
3. Go to Settings page (`/settings`)
4. Test different format configurations
5. Verify changes appear across all pages

## 🎨 Usage Examples

### In Components:
```typescript
import { useSettings } from '~/contexts/SettingsContext';

function MyComponent() {
  const { formatCurrency, formatDate, formatNumber } = useSettings();
  
  return (
    <div>
      <p>Cost: {formatCurrency(250.75)}</p>
      <p>Date: {formatDate(new Date())}</p>
      <p>Kilometers: {formatNumber(45000)} كم</p>
    </div>
  );
}
```

### In Loaders:
```typescript
import { getAppSettings, createFormatter } from '~/lib/settings-management.server';

export async function loader() {
  const settings = await getAppSettings();
  const formatter = await createFormatter();
  
  return json({
    formattedCost: formatter.formatCurrency(1234.56),
    settings
  });
}
```

## 🔍 Troubleshooting

### Common Issues:

1. **"Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'settings')"**
