1. Are there any restrictions on using CSS or JavaScript libraries?
2. Can we use any language other than python and js for the backend/server ?
3. Does MySQL needs to be put online , on hosting platform like Avian etc,  how will the project be tested btw?
4. Can we use JS libraries and frameworks such as React or Nextjs ?
5. Follow-up to Q3, can we use Docker for SQL and MongoDB? Also, is SQLite on a local DB file allowed?
6. Currently face_recognization_module is taking about 5 min to find the closest match , is this normal ?
7. What exactly are we allowed to gpt? I assume sql and mongo are part of the architecture of our system. Then if we decide what we want to store where then can we generate that code as part of our boilerplate using our specifications? Or should we write that portion of our code on our own and then just put it as part of our prompt to get the relevant HTML/ CSS and websockets boiler plate code.
8. Should the leaderboard update in real time?
For example, if a match is currently being played between Player A and Player B, and Player C is viewing the leaderboard at the same time — should the leaderboard automatically reflect the updated rankings once the match concludes, without Player C needing to refresh the page?
