Overview of My Submission

Our "Simple Task reminder" is a simple server less web app built with React and MongoDB Realm, Atlas. This app allows a user to create and manage a user account and to Create, Read, Update, Delete a task. A task is a simple to-do kind of thing that you want the app to keep a note and remind you of it timely. A task has a title, may or may not have a description and other data which is useful for backend logic implementation.

The user flow of the app will be as follows:

User Sign-in/ Sign-up

This is built using MongoDB Realm

A new user creates an account. Which sends the user a confirmation email to confirm the user's email and notifies the user about the email being sent.
User then confirms his email to finish setting up his account.
User can always reset his password from the home page by clicking the "Forgot Password" link.
When the User login's, the user is then navigated to a page where a list of his incomplete tasks are displayed. If there are no incomplete tasks the user is prompted to create a new task.
User can create an new task by clicking the button that says "Create New Task". Then, a modal appears that helps user to create the task.
Once the task is created it is displayed on to the page where user created a task. Initially the task is marked incomplete.
When the user completes the task he can click "Complete Task" button to mark task a complete. This updates the task to be completed and removes it from the screen.
Optionally user can Delete his task.
All these CRUD operations are implemented using Realm App.
Finally, if the user forgot to complete the task. The app will remind the user at 3:00pm AEST every day. This functionality is built using the Triggers and Realm Functions. The email is sent using SendGrid's npm package.
Finally, the user can logout using the logout button on the nav-bar(Displayed only if the user is logged in.)
