PROJECT: Tasketch

Overview

My teammates and I developed Tasketch for those who need to manage their time by allocating time for each daily task. More importantly, our Tasketch is optimized for those who prefer to use a desktop app and work with a Command Line Interface* (CLI) while still having the benefits of a Graphical User Interface (GUI)

Summary of contributions

  • Major enhancement: I have added the reminder feature to our Tasketch.

    • What it does: Sometimes student tend to forget important deadline of their tasks or start time of their CCA events and etc. The reminder will show a list of tasks in time order for them to conveniently view what tasks are coming soon so that they will know what to prepare first.

    • Justification: For busy university students, it is almost impossible for them to remember every start time or deadlines of their activities. A reminder is a common requirement of them to easily view these time in order. This feature significantly improves the users' using experience by meeting this requirement.

    • Highlights: This feature implement a very useful method sort() in model API which can be used to implement other features.

  • Minor enhancement: I made an enhancement to the list command of the previous version. In the previous version, list command can only list all the tasks in the storage. After enhancement, it support the usage like list td to list all the tasks of today so that user will know what need to be done today easily. It also support list [DATE], which show a list of tasks on the specified date.
