  • User registration and login using JWT.
  • OAuth for social logins (e.g., Google, Facebook).

User Profiles

  • CRUD operations for user profiles.
  • Profile pictures upload using Multer.

Task Boards

  • Create, read, update, and delete task boards.
  • Add lists and cards to boards.

Real-time Updates

  • Implement real-time updates using WebSockets (Socket.io) for tasks.

Drag and Drop

  • Use a library like react-beautiful-dnd for drag and drop functionality.

Notifications

  • Real-time notifications for task updates and mentions.

Comments and Attachments

  • Add comments and attachments to tasks.
  • File handling and uploads.

Search and Filter

  • Implement search and filter functionality for tasks and boards.

Access Control

  • Role-based access control (admin, member, guest).

Responsive Design

Testing

  • Write unit and integration tests for critical parts of the application.

Deployment

  • Deploy the application on Heroku or AWS.
  • Use environment variables to manage configurations.

Documentation

  • Use natural language processing (NLP) to analyze task descriptions and suggest relevant tags and categories.
  • Task prioritization using machine learning algorithms to optimize task completion.
  • Automated task assignment based on user skills and availability.
  • Predictive analytics to forecast task completion times and resource allocation.
  • Sentiment analysis to track user sentiment and identify areas for improvement.
