Kanban Task Management App

Overview

The Kanban Task Management App is a feature-rich application designed to help users manage tasks effectively using a Kanban board interface. The app is optimized for various screen sizes, includes essential CRUD operations for boards and tasks, and provides a seamless user experience with features like theme toggling and drag-and-drop functionality.

Features

• Responsive Design: The app provides an optimal layout for users, whether they're on a mobile device, tablet, or desktop.
• Interactive Elements: Hover states are available for all interactive elements, enhancing the user experience.
• CRUD Operations: Users can create, read, update, and delete both boards and tasks.
• Form Validations: When creating or editing boards and tasks, users receive real-time form validation feedback.
• Subtasks Management: Users can mark subtasks as complete and move tasks between columns as needed.
• Board Sidebar: The sidebar can be hidden or shown based on user preference.
• Theme Toggling: Users can switch between light and dark modes to suit their preferences.
• Drag and Drop (Bonus): Tasks can be easily dragged and dropped to change their status and reorder them within a column.
• Persistent Changes (Bonus): The app keeps track of changes even after a browser refresh using localStorage (if not implemented as a full-stack app).
• Full-Stack Integration (Bonus): The project can be built as a full-stack application, with persistent data storage and advanced features.
