The Task Creator application

Project Overview:The Task Creator application aims to provide users with a platform to create, manage, and track tasks efficiently. The application will be developed using Vue.js for the frontend, Spring Boot for the backend, and deployed to the Microsoft Azure cloud platform for accessibility and scalability.

Key Features:

User Authentication and Authorization: Implement user authentication and role-based access control (RBAC) to secure the application and differentiate between administrators and regular users.

Task Management: Allow users to create, update, delete, and prioritize tasks. Include features such as task categories, due dates, descriptions, and status tracking (e.g., pending, in progress, completed).

User Dashboard: Provide users with a personalized dashboard to view their tasks, filter tasks based on categories or due dates, and receive notifications for upcoming deadlines or overdue tasks.

Collaboration and Sharing: Enable users to share tasks with teammates, assign tasks to specific users, and track task progress collaboratively. Implement real-time updates using WebSocket technology for seamless collaboration.

Search and Filtering: Implement search functionality to allow users to quickly find tasks based on keywords, categories, or dates. Include advanced filtering options to refine search results.

Data Visualization: Utilize charts and graphs to visualize task statistics, such as task completion rates, average time to completion, and task distribution across categories.

Responsive Design: Ensure the application is responsive and optimized for various devices and screen sizes, including desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

Deployment to Azure: Deploy the application to the Microsoft Azure cloud platform using Azure App Service for hosting the frontend and backend components. Utilize Azure Database services for data storage and Azure Active Directory for user authentication and authorization.

Project Deliverables:

Application Design and Wireframes: Create design mockups and wireframes illustrating the user interface and user experience (UI/UX) of the application.

Frontend Development: Develop the frontend of the application using Vue.js, including components, views, routing, and state management using Vuex.

Backend Development: Implement the backend RESTful API using Spring Boot, including endpoints for user authentication, task management, and data storage and retrieval.

Database Design and Integration: Design the database schema for storing user information, task details, and application settings. Integrate the backend with a relational database system such as Azure SQL Database.

Integration Testing: Conduct thorough integration testing to ensure seamless communication between the frontend and backend components, as well as compatibility with Azure services.

Deployment and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD): Set up CI/CD pipelines using Azure DevOps or similar tools for automated build, test, and deployment processes. Deploy the application to Azure App Service and configure environment variables and security settings.

User Documentation and Training Materials: Prepare user guides, tutorials, and documentation to help users navigate the application effectively and troubleshoot common issues.

Monitoring and Maintenance: Implement monitoring and logging solutions using Azure Monitor to track application performance, identify errors, and troubleshoot issues. Provide ongoing maintenance and support services to address user feedback and feature requests.
