hbSrujana/TE-Attendance-fastapi — reverse-engineered prompt

Build me a simple attendance web app for a class called TE Attendance. I want a clean front end where a teacher can see a list of students, mark each one present or absent for today, save it, and later view attendance by date or by student.

Use the existing split with a FastAPI backend and a frontend, and keep it easy to run locally. Add basic forms for adding and editing students, a page that shows overall attendance percentages, and clear success or error messages so a nontechnical user knows what happened.

Store the data in a simple local database or file, whatever fits best for this project, and include seed data so I can test it right away. Please wire up the API and frontend fully, handle loading and empty states, and update any run instructions since there isn’t a useful README. Look up current docs online if you need to.
