Working Flow
-
User Authentication
User logs in using email/social login. Credentials verified via Cognito/Firebase Auth. -
Task Management
User creates/updates/deletes tasks in the app. -
Cloud Sync
Changes are pushed to the backend (Firestore/DB) and synced across all logged-in devices in real-time. -
Notifications & Reminders
Scheduled tasks trigger push/email reminders via FCM or AWS SNS. -
Collaboration
Shared task lists allow multiple users to view and update tasks simultaneously. -
Offline Mode
Local storage caches tasks offline and auto-syncs once internet is restored. -
Analytics Dashboard
Displays productivity stats (e.g., completed tasks, overdue tasks).
