Sudo Academy: Capstone Project

Congratulations! You're almost there but we have one last task for you before your graduation day. The best news? You can keep your project after the course's over and add it to your portfolio! Ain't that cool?

It'll give you the much needed experience of working on a real-world project with a strict and non-negotiable deadline while providing the necessary freedom to get your wheels of creativity spinning.

Task Description

Given the basic application scaffolding, your goal is to build a simple task management tool similar to Trello. If you haven't heard about Trello up until now, now would be a good time to go check it out.

Worry not, you don't have to build a fully-featured clone of Trello. While there are a few functional requirements you will have to meet but we'd like to encourage you to make it your own unique creation in the first place.

Now, without further ado, go ahead and set up a new Trello account for free. Other than getting some inspiration, you'll also be using Trello to manage your project until your own app is ready for the prime time. Your project coordinator should've given you access to a templated Trello board which reflects the best practices in the world of digital project management.

Functional Requirements

These are non-negotiable project requirements that you HAVE TO meet to consider your project shippable:

• Creating new boards
• Editing boards
• Deleting boards
• Creating new lists within a board
• Editing lists
• Delete a list
• Creating new cards within a list
• Edit a card
• Archiving cards
• Drag and drop cards between lists

Bring Your Own Idea™️

As stated earlier, you're more than encouraged to come up with your own enhancements and features. Here are a few examples for additional features we thought are nice to have:

• Copy
• Move to another board
• Share
• Stats
• Users
• Code-splitting
