docs: add separated frontend architecture options for mobile support

- Create docs/FRONTEND_OPTIONS.md with comprehensive analysis
- Explore 4 options for separated frontend:
  1. SPA with REST API (React/Vue/Svelte)
  2. Hybrid approach (mobile SPA + desktop server templates)
  3. HTMX for lightweight dynamic UI
  4. Native mobile app (React Native/Flutter/Capacitor)
- Include comparison matrix with pros/cons
- Provide implementation examples for each option
- Add responsive design guidelines
- Include API endpoints specification
- Recommend phased implementation roadmap
- No code changes - documentation only

This addresses mobile responsiveness while keeping backend intact.

-## Version Control
+## Testing
 
-This project uses Git for version control with the following structure:
+The project includes a comprehensive unit test suite with **46 tests** covering core functionality and edge cases.
+
+### Running Tests
+
+```bash
+# Install test dependencies (if not already installed)
+source .venv/bin/activate
+uv pip install pytest pytest-cov
+
+# Run all tests
+python3 -m pytest tests/ -v
+
+# Run with coverage report
+python3 -m pytest tests/ --cov=./ --cov-report=term-missing
+```
+
+### Test Structure
+
+| File | Tests | Coverage |
+|------|-------|----------|
+| `tests/test_core.py` | 21 | Core operations (tablet, user, loan CRUD) |
+| `tests/test_edge_cases.py` | 14 | Edge cases (duplicates, invalid IDs, etc.) |
+| `tests/test_minimal_app.py` | 11 | Application function tests |
+
+### Key Edge Cases Covered
+
+- Loan a device that's already loaned (prevents double-loaning)
+- Return a non-existent loan (handles gracefully)
+- Duplicate serial numbers (rejected at database level)
+- Duplicate user identifications (rejected at database level)
+- Invalid tablet/user IDs (validated before operations)
+- Multiple loans per user (one-to-many relationship)
+- Loan-return-loan sequence (device lifecycle)
+
+### Test Configuration
+
+Tests use isolated temporary databases and automatically clean up after each test run. No impact on production data.
 
-- `master` - Production-ready releases
-- `develop` - Integration branch for features
-- `feature/*` - Individual feature branches
-- `hotfix/*` - Urgent bug fixes
 
-See `CONTRIBUTING.md` for detailed workflow and commit conventions.

+## 9. Migración a PostgreSQL (Futuro)
+
+### Contexto
+
+El sistema actualmente utiliza **SQLite** como base de datos embebida, ideal para prototipos y aplicaciones pequeñas. Sin embargo, SQLite tiene limitaciones para escalar.
+
+### Criterios para Migración
+
+Considerar migrar a **PostgreSQL** cuando:
+- Tamaño DB > 1GB
+- Más de 50 conexiones simultáneas
+- Más de 200 usuarios activos
+- Más de 500 transacciones por minuto
+- Necesidad de múltiples servidores
+
+### Arquitectura Propuesta
+
+Usar un patrón de **Repository** para abstraer la base de datos:
+```
+backend/
+├── repositories/
+│   ├── base_repository.py       # Interfaz abstracta
+│   ├── sqlite_repository.py     # Implementación SQLite
+│   └── postgres_repository.py   # Implementación PostgreSQL
+└── config/
+    └── database.py              # Fábrica de repositorios
+```
+
+### Schema PostgreSQL
+
+El schema es similar al de SQLite pero con tipos de datos más específicos y índices adicionales para rendimiento.
+
+### Pasos para Migración
+
+1. Instalar dependencias: `pip install psycopg2-binary sqlalchemy alembic`
+2. Configurar PostgreSQL y crear base de datos
+3. Ejecutar script de migración: `python scripts/migrate_to_postgres.py`
+4. Cambiar configuración: `DB_TYPE=postgres`
+5. Iniciar aplicación
+
+### Beneficios
+
+- Concurrencia ilimitada (múltiples escritores)
+- Escalabilidad a miles de conexiones
+- Mejor rendimiento con índices
+- Seguridad integrada (autenticación, roles)
+- Backups automáticos
+- Replicación y clustering

+# PostgreSQL Migration Guide
+
+This document describes how to migrate the Tablet Management System from SQLite to PostgreSQL when the database grows beyond SQLite's capabilities.
+
+## When to Migrate
+
+Consider migrating to PostgreSQL when you encounter any of these scenarios:
+
+| Metric | SQLite Limit | PostgreSQL | Migration Trigger |
+|--------|--------------|------------|-------------------|
+| Database Size | ~10GB max | Unlimited | >1GB |
+| Concurrent Writers | 1 | Thousands | >50 simultaneous |
+| Active Users | <100 | Millions | >200 |
+| Transactions/min | <100 | 100K+ | >500 |
+| Servers | Single machine | Cluster | Multiple servers |
+| High Availability | No | Yes | Required |
+| Backup Strategy | Manual | Automated | Automated needed |
+
+## Architecture Overview
+
+The migration uses a **Repository Pattern** to abstract the database layer, allowing both SQLite and PostgreSQL to work seamlessly.

+```
+
+## Step 1: Install Dependencies
+
+```bash
+# For development
+pip install psycopg2-binary sqlalchemy alembic
+
+# For production (more efficient)
+pip install psycopg2 sqlalchemy alembic
+```
+
+## Step 2: Set Up PostgreSQL
+
+### Option A: Local Installation
+
+```bash
+# Ubuntu/Debian
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt install postgresql postgresql-contrib
+
+# Create database and user
+sudo -u postgres psql
+```
+
+In PostgreSQL shell:
+```sql
+CREATE DATABASE tablet_management;
+CREATE USER tablet_user WITH PASSWORD 'your_secure_password';
+GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE tablet_management TO tablet_user;
+ALTER USER tablet_user CREATEDB;
+\q
+```
+
+### Option B: Docker (Recommended for Development)
+
+```bash
+# Start PostgreSQL container
+docker run --name tablet-db -e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=your_password -e POSTGRES_USER=tablet_user -e POSTGRES_DB=tablet_management -p 5432:5432 -d postgres:16-alpine
+
+# Or use docker-compose (see docker-compose.yml)
+docker-compose up -d postgres
+```
+
+## Step 3: Configure Environment
+
+Create a `.env` file:
+
+```bash
+# Database configuration
+DB_TYPE=postgres                    # or 'sqlite'
+DB_URL=postgresql://tablet_user:your_password@localhost:5432/tablet_management
+
+# For SQLite (fallback)
+DB_PATH=tablets.db
+```
+
+Or set environment variables:
+
+```bash
+export DB_TYPE=postgres
+export DB_URL=postgresql://tablet_user:your_password@localhost:5432/tablet_management
+```
+
+## Step 4: Create Repository Abstraction

+    if config.is_postgres:
+        return PostgreSQLLoanRepository(config.db_url)
+    else:
+        return SQLiteLoanRepository(config.db_path)
+
+
+def get_non_loanable_device_repository() -> BaseNonLoanableDeviceRepository:

+        return PostgreSQLNonLoanableDeviceRepository(config.db_url)
+    else:
+        return SQLiteNonLoanableDeviceRepository(config.db_path)
+```
+
+## Step 6: Update Application to Use Repositories
+
+Modify your application to use the repository pattern:
+
+```python
+# In your app.py or service layer
+from backend.config.database import (
+    get_tablet_repository, get_user_repository,
+    get_loan_repository, get_non_loanable_device_repository
+)
+
+# Instead of direct SQLite calls:
+tablet_repo = get_tablet_repository()
+user_repo = get_user_repository()
+loan_repo = get_loan_repository()
+
+# Example: Loan a tablet
+def loan_tablet(tablet_id: int, user_id: int):
+    # Get repositories
+    tablet_repo = get_tablet_repository()
+    user_repo = get_user_repository()
+    loan_repo = get_loan_repository()
+    
+    # Validate
+    tablet = tablet_repo.get_by_id(tablet_id)
+    if not tablet:
+        raise ValueError("Tablet not found")
+    
+    if tablet['status'] != 'available':
+        raise ValueError("Tablet not available")
+    
+    user = user_repo.get_by_id(user_id)
+    if not user:
+        raise ValueError("User not found")
+    
+    # Check for active loan
+    active_loan = loan_repo.get_active_by_tablet(tablet_id)
+    if active_loan:
+        raise ValueError("Tablet already loaned")
+    
+    # Create loan
+    loan = loan_repo.create(tablet_id, user_id)
+    
+    # Update tablet status
+    tablet_repo.update_status(tablet_id, 'loaned')
+    
+    return loan
+```
+
+## Step 7: Create Migration Script

+
+## Step 8: Run Migration
+
+```bash

+
+# Verify data in test database

+
+# When ready, migrate to production
+python scripts/migrate_to_postgres.py --sqlite tablets.db --postgres postgresql://tablet_user:password@localhost:5432/tablet_management
+```
+
+## Step 9: Switch to PostgreSQL
+
+```bash
+# Update environment variables
+export DB_TYPE=postgres
+export DB_URL=postgresql://tablet_user:password@localhost:5432/tablet_management
+
+# Restart application
+python app.py
+```
+
+## Step 10: Verify and Monitor
+
+```bash
+# Check application logs for errors
+# Monitor database connections
+psql -U tablet_user -d tablet_management -c "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tablets;"
+
+# Check active connections
+psql -U postgres -c "SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity WHERE datname = 'tablet_management';"
+```
+
+## Rollback Plan
+
+If something goes wrong:
+
+1. **Immediate rollback:**
+   ```bash
+   # Switch back to SQLite
+export DB_TYPE=sqlite
+export DB_PATH=tablets.db
+   python app.py
+   ```
+
+2. **Data verification:**
+   ```bash
+   # Compare counts
+   sqlite3 tablets.db "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tablets;"
+   psql -U tablet_user -d tablet_management -c "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tablets;"
+   ```
+
+3. **Backup PostgreSQL data:**
+   ```bash
+   pg_dump -U tablet_user -d tablet_management > postgres_backup_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
+   ```
+
+## Docker Compose (Optional)
+
+For easy deployment with Docker:
+
+```yaml
+# docker-compose.yml
+version: '3.8'
+
+services:
+  postgres:
+    image: postgres:16-alpine
+    container_name: tablet_db
+    environment:
+      POSTGRES_DB: tablet_management
+      POSTGRES_USER: tablet_user
+      POSTGRES_PASSWORD: ${POSTGRES_PASSWORD:-changeme}
+    ports:
+      - "5432:5432"
+    volumes:
+      - postgres_data:/var/lib/postgresql/data
+    healthcheck:
+      test: ["CMD-SHELL", "pg_isready -U tablet_user -d tablet_management"]
+      interval: 5s
+      timeout: 5s
+      retries: 5
+    restart: unless-stopped
+
+  app:
+    build: .
+    container_name: tablet_app
+    environment:
+      DB_TYPE: postgres
+      DB_URL: postgresql://tablet_user:${POSTGRES_PASSWORD:-changeme}@postgres:5432/tablet_management
+    ports:
+      - "5000:5000"
+    depends_on:
+      postgres:
+        condition: service_healthy
+    restart: unless-stopped
+
+volumes:
+  postgres_data:
+```
+
+Start with Docker:
+```bash
+docker-compose up -d
+```
+

+
+## Monitoring PostgreSQL
+
+### Basic Queries
+
+```sql
+-- Active connections
+SELECT * FROM pg_stat_activity WHERE datname = 'tablet_management';
+
+-- Table sizes
+SELECT table_name, pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size(table_name))
+FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = 'public';
+
+-- Index usage
+SELECT indexrelname, idx_scan, idx_tup_read, idx_tup_fetch
+FROM pg_stat_user_indexes;
+
+-- Slow queries (requires pg_stat_statements extension)
+SELECT query, total_time, calls, mean_time
+FROM pg_stat_statements ORDER BY mean_time DESC LIMIT 10;
+```
+
+### Enable pg_stat_statements
+
+```sql
+-- In PostgreSQL
+CREATE EXTENSION pg_stat_statements;
+
+-- Then in postgresql.conf
+shared_preload_libraries = 'pg_stat_statements'
+pg_stat_statements.track = all
+```
+
+## Maintenance Tasks
+
+### Regular Maintenance
+
+```bash
+# Vacuum (reclaim space, update statistics)
+vacuumdb -U tablet_user -d tablet_management --analyze
+
+# Reindex (rebuild indexes)
+reindexdb -U tablet_user -d tablet_management
+```
+
+### Backup Strategy
+
+```bash
+# Daily backup
+pg_dump -U tablet_user -d tablet_management > /backups/tablet_management_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql
+
+# Compressed backup
+pg_dump -U tablet_user -d tablet_management | gzip > /backups/tablet_management_$(date +%Y%m%d).sql.gz
+
+# Continuous archiving (WAL)
+# In postgresql.conf:
+wal_level = replica
+archive_mode = on
+archive_command = 'test ! -f /backups/wal/%f && cp %p /backups/wal/%f'
+```
+
+## Performance Optimization
+
+### Configuration Tuning
+
+```conf
+# postgresql.conf recommendations
+shared_buffers = 4GB                   # 25% of total RAM
+work_mem = 16MB                        # For complex sorts
+maintenance_work_mem = 512MB          # For VACUUM, index creation
+effective_cache_size = 12GB           # 75% of total RAM
+random_page_cost = 1.1                # SSD: 1.1, HDD: 4.0
+max_worker_processes = 8              # Number of CPU cores
+max_parallel_workers_per_gather = 4   # Parallel query workers
+max_connections = 200                 # Expected max connections
+```
+
+### Index Optimization
+
+```sql
+-- Add indexes for common queries
+CREATE INDEX idx_loans_user_status ON loans(user_id, status);
+CREATE INDEX idx_loans_date_range ON loans(loan_date, return_date);
+
+-- Partial index for active loans
+CREATE INDEX idx_loans_active ON loans(tablet_id) WHERE status = 'active';
+
+-- Composite index for user loans
+CREATE INDEX idx_loans_user_tablet ON loans(user_id, tablet_id);
+```
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+**Connection refused:**
+```bash
+# Check if PostgreSQL is running
+sudo systemctl status postgresql
+
+# Check port
+netstat -tuln | grep 5432
+```
+
+**Authentication failed:**
+```bash
+# Verify user and password
+psql -U tablet_user -d tablet_management -h localhost
+
+# Check pg_hba.conf
+sudo nano /etc/postgresql/16/main/pg_hba.conf
+```
+
+**Database does not exist:**
+```bash
+# Create database
+createdb -U postgres tablet_management
+```
+
+**Permission denied:**
+```sql
+-- Grant permissions
+GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE tablet_management TO tablet_user;
+GRANT ALL ON SCHEMA public TO tablet_user;
+```
+
+### Logs
+
+```bash
+# PostgreSQL logs
+sudo tail -f /var/log/postgresql/postgresql-16-main.log
+
+# Application logs
+journalctl -u tablet_management -f
+```
+
+## Conclusion
+
+Migrating from SQLite to PostgreSQL provides:
+- Better performance at scale
+- True concurrency
+- Enhanced reliability
+- Advanced features
+- Production-ready infrastructure
+
+The repository pattern ensures a smooth transition with minimal code changes, and the migration script automates the data transfer process.
