feat(sqlite-setup): add SQLite setup guide for Windows environment
What - Added documentation for setting up SQLite on Windows OS. - Covered key steps: - Downloading `sqlite-tools` from the official SQLite website. - Extracting the zip file to a dedicated folder (e.g., `C:\sqlite`). - Adding the folder path to Windows `PATH` environment variable. - Verifying installation by running `sqlite3` command in Command Prompt. - Explained how to create/open a database: - `sqlite3 mydb.db` → creates or opens the database file. - `.tables` → view available tables. - `.schema` → view schema of tables. Why - Provides a clean setup guide for beginners working with SQLite on Windows. - Ensures developers can quickly configure SQLite to run queries and connect via JDBC in Java. - Standardizes environment setup across teams. How to use 1. Download SQLite tools (sqlite-tools-win32-x86-x.y.z.zip). 2. Extract to `C:\sqlite`. 3. Add `C:\sqlite` to PATH: - Control Panel → System → Advanced system settings → Environment Variables. - Edit PATH variable → add new entry `C:\sqlite`. 4. Open Command Prompt: ```bash sqlite3 • Should open SQLite shell with sqlite> prompt. Real-life Applications • Lightweight database for prototyping or small apps. • Backend storage for local desktop or embedded applications. • Used in Android development for local data persistence. • Handy for practicing SQL queries without heavy DBMS installation. Notes • SQLite is serverless and file-based; .db file contains the entire database. • Use .exit or .quit to close the SQLite shell. • Ensure correct JDBC driver (sqlite-jdbc-x.y.z.jar) when integrating with Java.
