Introducing TaskUpp App - Task Management made easy.

TaskUpp App

Introduction

TaskUpp is a task management website that you can use to manage your daily tasks and also create and maintains your daily notes and tasks.

It's another Task management app like ClickUp.com or Notion, but I have tried to improve the UI Design in my version of the Task Management app.

You can simply create your account and start managing your tasks. effortlessly.

And that's done, now go and have fun with TaskUpp.

AWS Amplify Studio

AWS Amplify Studio is a visual interface that allows developers to easily build and ship complete web and mobile apps in hours.

With Amplify Studio, you can quickly build an app backend, create a rich user interface (UI) React components, and connect a UI to the backend in clicks.

Amplify Studio exports all UI and infrastructure artifacts as code that you would write yourself, so you can maintain full control over your app design and behavior. Ship faster and scale smoothlywith no cloud or AWS expertise required.

In my Project, I used these features of the AWS Amplify Studio.

Features 🚀

First thing, It helps you create Task Card to manage your Project or Goals.
You can create different Boards which will help you distinguish between Completed, In Progress, or Todo Tasks.
The best feature is the Drag & Drop feature which lets you drag and drop cards between Boards to change the status of your tasks.
You can also add different Labels to your Task Cards to help you quickly see certain things that several tasks have in common, like requirements, locations, dependencies, or important time constraints.

Inspiration

Honestly, I wanted to create this app for a long time.

Actually, I use a Task Management app called ClickUp.com. Its features were really amazing and I was very impressed by those features.

After that, I thought to create a similar app, with enhanced UI design

I have created this for those, who have to manage their daily tasks in one visual dashboard and let them create to-do lists, manage projects, and assign take notes.

Feedback and Conclusion

Although it is not a very great project, I have done my best that I can do to create this project.

I'm a Front-end developer and wanted to make the app's design as cool as possible, but I enjoyed building this project as a full-stack project and learned new tech like (AWS Amplify Studio).

I love creating things, solving problems, and learning new technologies and it involved all of them.

Challenges I Faced 😥

I have used AWS before in one of my project where I used AWS EC2 to host my a web app that's it.

I haven't used it for building backend for web app and as a database.

I struggled a lot while creating the backend part and integrating it with the front end.

Although it was very challenging and I learned so many things that I haven't known yet.
