TaskMate App

TaskMate is a modern to-do app designed to help users manage tasks efficiently and boost productivity. Built with the latest Android development technologies, TaskMate offers a seamless and user-friendly experience.

Key Features

1. Beautiful UI with Jetpack Compose : TaskMate uses Jetpack Compose to provide a clean, intuitive, and visually appealing user interface. The dynamic design ensures a smooth user experience across different devices.

2. Robust Backend with Retrofit : Leveraging Retrofit for network operations, TaskMate ensures quick and reliable data synchronization between the app and the server, supporting features like real-time updates and remote data fetching.

3. Offline Support with Room Database : The app uses Room Database to store tasks locally, allowing users to access and manage their to-do lists even without an internet connection. Data is synchronized automatically when connectivity is restored.

4. Clean Architecture with MVVM : Following the Model-View-ViewModel (MVVM) architectural pattern, TaskMate ensures a modular, maintainable, and testable codebase. This design separates business logic, UI, and data handling effectively.

5. Developed in Kotlin : Built entirely in Kotlin, the app takes advantage of its concise syntax, safety features, and powerful coroutines for smooth asynchronous operations.
