Hey there, noticed a few minor things that you should be able to fix pretty quickly. It's quite nitpicky though.

  • When hovering "Try the demo" or "Contact" in your header, the hover effect pushes the other items to the right side. As a short .mp4 (no clue how to embed it here): i.imgur.com/DvU9jIy.mp4
  • The text in your mobile header isn't vertically centered and I can't unsee it Image
  • Why can't I select a date when creating a new task? I have to save it first and then edit
  • When I try to click out of the "new task modal", it says I shall enter a title first.. but I want to close it. Clicking outside of a modal should be the cancel action.
  • As others said the orange sure is an interesting choice. I'd personally get rid of it asap and just use a white bg for the modal
  • Why do I have to save the title first before I can save a new task? Seems like an extra step that doesn't really need to be there
  • There are still some console.logs :D
  • Your startpage has an email field but no hint to any data-privacy/usage of that mail cough cough gdpr

Other than that pretty neat for a few days of side-project'ing. What are your future plans with the site? Monetize or open source?

Cheers from the opposite side of germany

Hi Alexander,

thanks a lot, those are great suggestions! I already fixed some items during my lunch break (who needs food, right?!):

  • the hover effect in the topbar
  • _More _should be aligned now
  • clicking outside the modal while creating a new task will cancel it
  • the modal is white now. It does look better now, I agree :)
  • changing the title is instant now

Changing the date while creating a new task messes up the drag and drop. I was not able to fix it quickly, so I disabled it for the demo. I agree it should be possible to change it and I will work on it for the beta.

I want to monetize it later, when it's finished. I will probably make it freemium with attachments and more for the premium version.

I will check out the rest after my workday is over, thanks again!
