DopeList: Your ultimate to-do companion - organize, prioritize, and conquer tasks effortlessly.
The problem DopeList solves
Overwhelm from Task Juggling: Helps users manage multiple tasks and projects without getting overwhelmed by offering clear organization through labels, projects, and subtasks.
Missed Deadlines: Prevents missed deadlines by allowing users to track due dates and prioritize tasks, helping them stay on top of important deadlines.
Lack of Project Clarity: Resolves confusion in managing multiple projects by organizing tasks under specific projects, making it easier to track progress and focus on what matters.
Disjointed Task Updates: Solves the issue of delayed or disjointed updates by providing real-time synchronization, ensuring users always see the latest task status.
Complex and Cluttered Task Management: Simplifies the experience of managing tasks, reducing the complexity that often comes with other task management tools.
Challenges I ran into
Integrating Convex with the Frontend: Ensuring smooth interaction between Convex and Next.js/React was challenging, especially for managing complex task relationships and real-time updates.
Schema Validation: Using Zod for schema validation required meticulous setup to ensure data consistency across the app.
Authentication: Implementing Next.js Auth V5 (Auth.js) and Google Sign-In involved overcoming challenges related to secure user authentication and session management.
UI Design: Balancing functionality and simplicity while integrating ShadCN UI and TailwindCSS was difficult. The UI needed to be both feature-rich and user-friendly.
Performance: Managing performance and scalability as tasks and projects grew required optimizing React components and state management with Convex.
Form Handling: Configuring React Hook Form to handle dynamic fields and validation presented challenges in ensuring accurate data entry and processing.
