epic-todo System Requirements Document

Introduction

The purpose of this document is to outline the system requirements for the "epic-todo" project. This project aims to develop a simple and functional to-do application focusing on core logic without any design complexities. The application will allow users to manage their tasks efficiently by providing basic functionalities such as adding, completing, and listing tasks.

System Overview

The "epic-todo" application is designed to be a straightforward task management tool. It will enable users to perform essential operations on their to-do lists, ensuring a seamless and efficient task management experience. The application will be developed with a focus on core logic, ensuring that the fundamental functionalities are robust and reliable.

Functional Requirements

• As a User, I should be able to add tasks to my to-do list.
• As a User, I should be able to mark tasks as complete.
• As a User, I should be able to view a list of all my tasks.

User Personas

• User: The primary user of the application who will add, complete, and view tasks.

Visuals Colors and Theme

Since the focus is on core logic, no specific design or color theme is required for this project. However, if a visual interface is later considered, a simple and clean design with a neutral color palette can be adopted.

Signature Design Concept

For future consideration, if a design is to be implemented, a potential concept could be an interactive task board where users can drag and drop tasks between different states (e.g., "To Do", "In Progress", "Completed"). This would provide a dynamic and engaging user experience, enhancing task management efficiency.

Interaction Model & Motion Direction

Given the current focus on core logic, the interaction model is static. However, if a user interface is developed in the future, a simple animated model with hover transitions for task interactions could be considered to enhance user experience.

Non-Functional Requirements

• The application should be lightweight and fast, ensuring quick task operations.
• It should be reliable, with minimal downtime or errors during task management.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: React for Web
• Backend: Python with FastAPI
• Database: MySQL or MariaDB, using Alembic for migrations

Assumptions and Constraints

• The application will initially focus on core logic without a user interface.
• Future enhancements may include a user interface and additional features based on user feedback.
• The application will be developed with scalability in mind, allowing for future expansion.

Glossary

• Task: An item in the to-do list that can be added, completed, or viewed.
• User: The individual interacting with the application to manage tasks.

This document provides a comprehensive overview of the requirements for the "epic-todo" project, focusing on delivering a simple and functional task management application.
