Architecture

  • Application: Flask with Python
  • Database: SQLite for local development, PostgreSQL for production
  • Frontend: HTML, CSS, JavaScript with optional Bootstrap for UI components

Architecture Overview

This application uses a simple MVC architecture:

  1. Models: SQLAlchemy ORM for database interactions
  2. Views: Jinja2 templates for rendering HTML
  3. Controllers: Flask routes for handling requests
  4. Data Storage: Local database for task persistence
  5. Export Functionality: Options to export tasks as CSV, PDF, or calendar format

Functional Requirements

  1. Task Creation
    • Users can add new tasks with the following information:
      • Task description (what they want to accomplish)
      • Estimated time to complete
      • Due date
    • Form validation to ensure all required fields are completed
