Features in Detail

Text User Interface (TUI)

The TUI provides a rich, interactive experience with:

• ASCII Art Header - Eye-catching "TODO APP" banner
• Live Statistics Panel - Shows total, pending, completed tasks and progress percentage
• Data Table - Clean display of all tasks with status indicators
• Modal Dialogs - User-friendly forms for adding and editing tasks
• Confirmation Dialogs - Safe deletion with confirmation prompts

CLI Interface

Fast command-line operations for:

• Quick task addition without launching the TUI
• Listing tasks with filtering options
• Batch operations and scripting support
• Integration with shell scripts and automation

Task Management

• Task Properties: ID, title, description, completion status, creation timestamp
• Validation: Prevents empty task titles
• Statistics: Automatic calculation of totals, pending, completed, and progress percentage

Technology Stack

• Textual - Modern TUI framework for rich terminal interfaces
• Typer - Beautiful CLI with automatic help generation
• Rich - Rich text and beautiful formatting in the terminal
• Pyfiglet - ASCII art text generation
• Pydantic - Data validation and settings management

Architecture

The application follows clean architecture principles:

• Data Models - Business logic decoupled from UI (Task, TaskManager)
• UI Components - Reusable screens and dialogs (AddTaskScreen, EditTaskScreen, ConfirmDialog)
• CLI Commands - Separate Typer commands for command-line operations
• Main Application - Textual app with reactive UI updates
