1. Clone the Repository:

   git clone https://github.com/petarmilunovic/hibernate-demo.git
   cd hibernate-demo
   

2. Add dependencies:

• The repository already contains a pom.xml file with all necessary dependencies, including Hibernate and JavaFX
• If you're not using Maven, download the required libraries JDBC, Hibernate and add JAR files to your project's classpath

3. Configure Database Connection:

• Create an empty MySQL database
• Update the hibernate.cfg.xml file in the resources folder with your database connection details and credentials

4. Run the Application:

• Compile and run the application from your IDE
• Use the GUI to perform CRUD operations on the database
