03. To-Do List Application Beginner Projects

For a simple, beginner-friendly To-Do List application, you can focus on essential features and make it console-based. Here's how you can structure it:

1. Basic Features

• Add Task: Users can input tasks with just a name or simple description.
• View Tasks: List tasks, showing completed and pending tasks.
• Mark Task as Complete: Users can mark tasks as done.
• Delete Task: Users can remove a task from the list.
• Save Data: Use a text file to store tasks so that they're available the next time the program runs.

2. Workflow

• Main Menu: Create a basic text-based menu that prompts users to choose what they want to do: add, view, complete, or delete tasks.
• Input/Output: Use simple inputs to interact with users and print task lists on the console.

3. Data Storage

• In-memory storage: Store tasks in a list for the current session.
• File-based storage: Use a text file (like .txt) or a simple format like CSV to save tasks and reload them at startup.

4. Error Handling

• Handle common user errors like adding duplicate tasks, selecting invalid tasks, or trying to delete from an empty list.

This will give you a solid foundation in Python concepts like lists, file handling, functions, and basic loops.
