### 📝 v1.0.0.4 - February 2024



* Fixed backup day count.

* Added [MessageDialog](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/uwp/api/windows.ui.popups.messagedialog?view=winrt-22621) overdue summary.

    - Added new config `ShowOverdueSummary` to SettingsViewModel.

* Added new feature: `Notes`



### 📝 v1.0.0.3 - August 2023



* I have reworked this entire project, which was originally from [Pdawg-bytes](https://github.com/Pdawg-bytes/WinUI3-TaskList)

* It is now fully functional and bug-free. I have left **TODO** markers for a developer's future enhancements.

* I have removed the code related to [WinUIEx](https://github.com/dotMorten/WinUIEx) as it was causing conflicts/exceptions and preventing the update of the existing SDKs.

    - Where relevant, I added code to handle the resizing, icon update and centering of the *MainWindow*.

* This project uses the following additional packages:

    - [CommunityToolkit.WinUI](https://github.com/CommunityToolkit/WindowsCommunityToolkit)

    - [CommunityToolkit.Common](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/communitytoolkit.common?view=win-comm-toolkit-dotnet-7.0&viewFallbackFrom=win-comm-toolkit-dotnet-6.1)

    - [CommunityToolkit.Mvvm](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/communitytoolkit/mvvm/)

    - [Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting)

    - [Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.WinUI.Managed](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Xaml.Behaviors.WinUI.Managed)

    - [MicroCharts](https://www.nuget.org/packages/microcharts) and [SkiaSharp.Views.WinUI](https://www.nuget.org/packages/SkiaSharp.Views.WinUI)



## 🚀 Future Enhancments

* Application activation via **Toast Notifications** still needs work.

  - This can be handled through `Task_List_App.Services.ActivationService.HandleActivationAsync`.

  - I have added the logic, but a [Mutex](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/system.threading.mutex?view=net-6.0) will need to be created and managed.

* Language conversions and additional `x:Uid` tags.



## 🎛️ Usage

* You can run this as a normal desktop app. Tooltips are provided for each action.

* I recommend compiling/running as an `Unpackaged` application.

* If the database is absent, a new one will be created.

* `Alt-A` Adds a new task.

* `Alt-S` Saves any changes.

* `Alt-X` Exit the application.

* If the task's title contains a URL then it will be opened in a browser when that task is selected in the list.

* After adding the **Complete** `AppBarButton` (which was ment to mark multiple tasks when ready), I found it was easier to use the `CheckBox`. I have left this `AppBarButton` for posterity.
