- Real-Time Updates: Built with WebSockets to sync data across all connected devices instantly.
- Display Modes:

- Small Screen: Displays room-specific queues (e.g., outside consultation rooms).
To enable access from multiple devices, update the following environment variable in /client/.env:
REACT_APP_SERVER_URL=http://<your-server-ip>:8089
