# TaskTrackr

Task management application using ASP.NET Core, Entity Framework Core, Angular, Bootstrap, and SQL Server on AWS RDS, enabling efficient project assignment, progress tracking, and team collaboration.

Process:



  
SQL Server Management Studio

    


      
Connect to Server

        


          
Server Type: Database Engine

          
Server Name: localhost

          
Authentication: Windows Authentication

          
Connect

        

      

      
Create a new Database

        


          
In the Object Explorer, right-click on Databases and select New Database



          
Database Name: TaskTrackrDb

        

      

      
Configure a User

        


          
Expand the Security node.

          
Right-click Logins and select New Login



          
In the Login - New dialog:

            


              
Login Name: Enter a username

              
Authentication: Choose SQL Server Authentication and set a password.

            

          

          
In the left panel, go to User Mapping, check your database (TaskTrackrDb), and assign the db_owner role.

        

      

      
Configure the Connection String in appsettings.json

        


          
"DefaultConnection": "Server=(localdb)\\MSSQLLocalDB;Database=TaskTrackrDb;Trusted_Connection=True;"

        

      

    

  


  
ASP.NET MVC

    


      
Create Models(User, Project, ProjectTask) with data annotations.

      
Create DTOs to transfer only the required data between the client and server. Also to avoid exposing the navigation properties that cause cycles.

      
Add Required NuGet Packages

        


          
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore

          
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.SqlServer

          
Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools

        

      

      
Create DBContext to interact with the database. This serves as a bridge between the application and the database using Entity Framework Core.

      
Create Repositories with async methods to implement data access logic using Entity Framework and interact with the database.

      
Create Controllers for basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations.

      
Configure Database Connection. Set up the connections string to AWS SQL Server.

      
Create migrations and apply to the database to create tables

        


          
Add Migration: ~dotnet ef migrations add InitialCreate



          
Apply Migration: ~dotnet ef database update



        

      

      
Seed database with dummy data

        


          
Create SeedData.cs.

          
Modify Program.cs to call the SeedData.Initialize method during application startup.

          
Add migrations and apply to the database to create tables

            


              
Add Migration: ~dotnet ef migrations add SeedDataMigration



              
Apply Migration: ~dotnet ef database update



            

          

        

      

      
Test all methods on Swagger.

    

  


  
Frontend(Angular)

    


      
Create models(User, Project, ProjectTask).

      
Create services to handle communication with the database.

      
Install Bootstap: ~npm install bootstrap



      
Create components for project-list and user-list.

    

  

  
Create environments for development and production, specifically for connection string.
