AI-Powered Task Manager

A modern, full-stack Task Management application that uses AI to break down complex tasks into actionable sub-steps.

📖 Project Overview

This project demonstrates a full-stack web architecture using React (Vite) for the frontend and Node.js (Express) for the backend. The key differentiator is the "AI Copilot" feature, which analyzes task titles and suggests helpful breakdowns or context to improve productivity.

Key Features

• Modern UI/UX: Glassmorphism design, dark mode, and smooth micro-interactions.
• REST API: Custom-built Node.js/Express backend handling CRUD operations.
• Real-time Updates: Instant state management without page reloads.
• AI Integration: [Coming Soon] Automaticaly generates sub-tasks and tips using LLMs.
