Dependencies

• Moshi: A modern JSON library for Kotlin and Java that makes it easy to parse and generate JSON data.

• kotlinx-datetime: A multiplatform Kotlin library for working with date and time.

Roadmap

This Project is completed in 6 different stages

Stage 1: Read the list

Stage 2: The tasklist menu

Stage 3: Date and time

Stage 4: Edit the list

Stage 5: Frame and colors

Stage 6: Save the list

Lessons Learned

• Working with date and time: Managing date and time data can be complex due to the various formats, time zones, and edge cases. We used the kotlinx-datetime library to simplify working with date and time in Kotlin.
• Implementing data persistence: Storing the task data in a local JSON file allowed us to save and load the user's data between sessions. We used the Moshi library to handle JSON serialization and deserialization.
