Task Tracker CLI 🚀\n\n![Task Tracker Banner](./Task_Tracker_using_File_system/image.png)\n\n**Two implementations of a command-line task manager**:\n1. **JSON Version**: Advanced version with status tracking (todo/in-progress/done) and timestamps\n2. **Filesystem Version**: Simple version using text files for basic task management\n\n[![Node Version](https://img.shields.io/badge/node-%3E%3D12.0.0-brightgreen)](https://nodejs.org/)\n[![License: MIT](https://img.shields.io/badge/License-MIT-yellow.svg)](https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT)\n\n## Features ✨\n\n### JSON Version (`tasktrack.js`)\n- ✅ Status tracking (todo/in-progress/done)\n- 📅 Automatic timestamps (createdAt/updatedAt)\n- 🔍 Filter tasks by status\n- 🧩 Persistent JSON storage\n\n### Filesystem Version (`index.js`)\n- ✅ Simple text-based storage\n- 🔢 Automatic task numbering\n- 🏷️ Basic CRUD operations\n- 📝 Plaintext task storage\n\n## Feature Comparison 🔍\n\n| Feature               | JSON Version (`tasktrack.js`) | Filesystem Version (`index.js`)|\n|-----------------------|-------------------------------|--------------------------------|\n| **Storage Method**    | JSON file (`task.json`)       | Text files (`tasklist.txt`)    |\n| **Status Tracking**   | ✅ (todo/in-progress/done)    | ❌                            |\n| **Timestamps**        | ✅ (createdAt/updatedAt)      | ❌                            |\n| **Task Filtering**    | ✅ by status                  | ❌                            |\n| **Data Structure**    | Complex objects               | Simple line-by-line text       |\n| **Best For**          | Detailed task management      | Quick simple task lists        |\n\n\n## Installation ⚡\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/arpanrijal/TaskTrack_using_JSON.git\ncd TaskTrack_using_JSON\n```\n\n## Usage 🖥️\n\n### JSON Version (Advanced)\n\n```bash\nnode tasktrack.js [command] [arguments]\n\n# Add task\nnode tasktrack.js add \"Write documentation\"\n\n# List tasks\nnode tasktrack.js list in-progress\n\n# Update task\nnode tasktrack.js update 3 \"Updated description\"\n\n# Change status\nnode tasktrack.js mark-done 1\n```\n\n### Filesystem Version (Basic)\n\n```bash\nnode index.js\n\n# Follow the menu:\n# 1. Add Task\n# 2. View Tasks\n# 3. Remove Task\n# 4. Update Task\n# 5. Exit\n```\n\n## File Structure 📂\n\n```\nTaskTrack_using_JSON/\n├── tasktrack.js        # JSON version (advanced)\n├── task.json          # JSON task storage\n├── index.js           # Filesystem version (basic)\n├── tasklist.txt       # Filesystem task storage\n├── indexnum.txt       # Task counter\n└── README.md\n```\n\n## Example Workflow 🔄\n\n### JSON Version\n```bash\nnode tasktrack.js add \"Complete project\"\nnode tasktrack.js mark-in-progress 1\nnode tasktrack.js list\n```\n\n### Filesystem Version\n```bash\nnode index.js\n\u003e 1 (Add Task)\n\u003e \"Buy groceries\"\n\u003e Y (Continue)\n\u003e 2 (View Tasks)\n```\n\n## Why Two Versions? 💡\n\nThis project demonstrates different Node.js storage approaches:\n- **JSON Version**: Shows complex data structures with status tracking\n- **Filesystem Version**: Illustrates basic file I/O operations\n\nOriginally created as part of the [roadmap.sh](https://roadmap.sh/projects/task-tracker) project roadmap.\n\n## Contributing 🤝\n\n1. Fork the repository\n2. Create your feature branch (`git checkout -b feature/amazing-feature`)\n3. Commit your changes (`git commit -m 'Add some feature'`)\n4. Push to the branch (`git push origin feature/amazing-feature`)\n5. Open a pull request\n\n## FAQ ❓\n\n**Q:** Which version should I use?  \n**A:** Use JSON version for serious task management, filesystem version for quick lists\n\n**Q:** Can I use both simultaneously?  \n**A:** Not recommended as they use different storage systems\n\n**Q:** How do I back up my tasks?  \n**A:** Simply copy `task.json` or `tasklist.txt` to another location\n\n## License 📜\n\nMIT © [Arpan Rijal](https://github.com/arpanrijal)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Farpanrijal%2Ftask-tracker-cli","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Farpanrijal%2Ftask-tracker-cli","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Farpanrijal%2Ftask-tracker-cli/lists"}
