CSS (Cascading Style Sheets)
JS (JavaScript)
Design Requirement π¨
There are many design requirements that are written below:
The design of this application will be simple, modern, and minimalistic.
The background will be clean with a chalk white color.
An input field for entering new tasks will have a placeholder using a modern font, and it will have a border when focused.
Buttons will have rounded corners and a hover effect.
When the user presses the complete button, the taskβs background color will change to green. It will be yellow when the task is in progress and red for pending tasks.
Each task will have a gap to ensure tasks are easily visible to the user.
The tasks container will have borders with the same radius as the buttons.
Icons will be used instead of actual button tags for a more enhanced user interface, which will also save space.
