Taskhamut

This solution implements a fairly simple single page task list. This will be a learning/practice project for me, but might provide a useful example resource to other learners.

Status: preliminary, nothing working yet

Uses:

• Visual Studio 2022 CE 17.6.2 (or newer)
• .Net 7
• C# 10
  • Nullable Reference Types enabled
• SQLite 3.X
• Entity Framework Core 7
  • Code-first db scaffolding
• Windows App SDK 1.3
  • Template Studio
    • Dependency injection
    • MVVM
      • Windows Community Toolkit 7.0
        • RelayCommand functionality to forward events from View to ViewModel (per MVVM desire to minimize code in view's codebehind files and resulting coupling).

Not using/implementing

• localization/internationalization
• testing/TDD

UI Summary

• Tabbed navigator
  • viewing/editing tasks
  • creating/selecting user
  • managing task categories
  • user options
  • about info

Back end summary

Back end is a SQLite database, although I would like to make this switchable to any common database - except for the added overhead and complexity. SQL Server [Express|Desktop], MySQL/MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, etc. Allowing somewhat arbitrary ODBC or JDBC database connections would be an interesting feat.

Possible future additions

• Segregating tasks into projects
• Due dates
• Prioritizations
• Recurring tasks For now, spplying KISS (Keeping It Simple, Stupid). There are enough cheap or free, full-featured task/todo managers out there!
