Project Requirements

Objective

Develop a task management board that allows users to manage tasks across different statuses. The board should include features such as drag-and-drop functionality, task creation, editing, and filtering.

Project Features

1. Task Board Layout: ✅

   • Create a task management board with multiple columns representing different task statuses, such as "To Do," "In Progress," and "Completed."

2. Drag-and-Drop Functionality: ✅ (Angular directives implemented as a wrapper for native HTML Drag and Drop API)

   • Implement drag-and-drop functionality to allow users to move tasks between different columns on the task board.
   • Use HTML5's native Drag and Drop API.

3. Add New Tasks: ✅

   • Enable users to add new tasks to the task board by providing an input field or a modal dialog.
   • When a task is added, it should appear in the appropriate column based on its status.

4. Edit and Delete Tasks: ✅

   • Allow users to edit task details, such as the task title or description, by clicking on the task.
   • Implement a delete option to remove tasks from the task board entirely.

5. Task Details: ✅

   • Display additional information for each task, such as due date, priority, assigned team member, or any other relevant details.
   • Include options to view the task details in a modal or an expanded view.

6. Task Filtering: ✅

   • Add filtering options to the task board to help users focus on specific tasks.
   • Implement filters based on criteria like assigned team member, due date, or priority level.

7. Local Storage: ✅ (Angular storage service implemented that is using the 'typed-local-store' library, a lightweight wrapper for localStorage to provide type safe access)

   • Persist the task board data using the browser's local storage ( ✅ ) or IndexedDB.
   • This will allow users to retrieve their task board even after closing or refreshing the page.

8. Responsiveness: ✅

   • Ensure that the task management board is responsive and works well on different screen sizes and devices.
   • Use CSS media queries and flexible layouts to adapt to different viewports.

9. Styling: ✅

   • Apply CSS styles to enhance the visual appeal of the task management board.
   • Use appropriate colors, typography, and layout techniques to create an intuitive and visually pleasing interface.

10. Error Handling: ✅

    • Handle potential errors, such as invalid inputs or failed data storage, by providing appropriate error messages and fallback mechanisms.
    • Validate user inputs and handle any edge cases to ensure a smooth user experience.

11. Accessibility: ✅

    • Consider accessibility guidelines by providing appropriate alt text for images, keyboard navigation support, and ensuring sufficient color contrast ( ⚠️ ) for users with visual impairments.

12. Testing: ✅ (Jasmine testing framework and Karma test runner)

    • Write automated tests using a testing framework like Mocha and Jasmine ( ✅ ) or a framework of your choice to verify the functionality of critical components.
    • Test task creation, drag-and-drop functionality, and data persistence to ensure the reliability of the task management board.
