Setup Husky and Linting Checks Before Commit

Description
Set up Husky to automatically run linting and formatting checks before a commit is made.
This ensures code consistency, prevents lint errors from being committed, and maintains a clean and standardized codebase.

---

Tasks

• Install and configure Husky for Git hooks
• Install lint-staged to run checks only on staged files
• Ensure ESLint and Prettier configurations are in place
• Create a pre-commit hook to run linting and formatting
• Add scripts in package.json for:
  • "lint"
  • "format"
  • "prepare" (for Husky installation)
• Verify that lint and format run automatically before commits

---

Acceptance Criteria

• Pre-commit hook successfully prevents commits when linting fails
• ESLint and Prettier run only on staged files (using lint-staged)
• Developers can commit only clean, formatted code
• Setup works across all packages in the monorepo (if applicable)
