  2. System Analysis: Draw Data Flow Diagrams (Context diagram and Level 0 DFD) showing flow and stores.
  3. System Design: Map ERD database tables, specify attributes/keys, and normalize schemas to 3NF.
  4. Implementation: Code the interfaces (HTML/CSS) and dynamic backend logic (Python/PHP).
  5. Verification: Build test cases documenting expected vs actual outcomes.
