• App link: https://task-manager-cli-app.streamlit.app/

Description

The Task Manager CLI Application is a Python-based command-line tool for managing tasks efficiently. This application allows users to add, view, delete, and mark tasks as complete. All tasks are saved locally to a JSON file (tasks.json), making them persistent across multiple sessions. Additionally, tasks are displayed in a neat tabular format to improve readability, and logging functionality is provided to track actions and handle errors effectively.

Features

• Add Tasks: Add new tasks while ensuring unique titles (case-insensitive).
• View Tasks: View all tasks in a table format (ID, Title, Status).
• Delete Tasks: Remove tasks based on their unique task ID.
• Complete Tasks: Mark tasks as completed and avoid re-marking already completed tasks.
• Persistent Storage: Automatically saves tasks to a JSON file (tasks.json), ensuring data is retained between sessions.
• Logging: Logs important events such as task addition, deletion, and errors into a log file (task_manager.log).

Technologies Used

• Python: Programming language used for development.
• Streamlit: A framework for creating web applications.
• JSON: Format for saving tasks.
• Pandas: For handling and displaying data in table format.
