To-Do List Manager

Coursera Programming in Go Final Project: To-Do List Manager

A to-do list manager is a software application or tool designed to help individuals or teams organize, prioritize, and manage their tasks and activities effectively. It serves as a digital or virtual list where users can add, track, edit, and mark tasks as completed or pending. The primary goal of a to-do list manager is to increase productivity, improve time management, and ensure that tasks are completed in an organized manner.

Problem Statement

Develop a basic command-line To-Do List application in Golang that allows users to manage and organize their tasks. The program should fulfill the following functionalities:

Task Management

• Enable users to add new tasks to their To-Do List.
• Display the entire list of tasks.

Task Removal

• Allow users to remove tasks from their list.

Task Completion

• Implement the ability for users to mark tasks as completed.

Basic User Interface

• Create a simple text-based interface for users to interact with the To-Do List.
• Display options for adding, removing, and marking tasks as completed.

Persistence

• Store tasks in memory during the program's execution.
• Provide an option to save tasks to a file for persistence between program runs.

Guidelines

• Utilize basic Golang concepts such as slices, loops, conditional statements, and user input handling to create the To-Do List.
• Implement functionalities to add, display, remove, and mark tasks as completed using appropriate data structures and control flow.
• Design a straightforward and user-friendly command-line interface with clear instructions and menu-driven options.
• Encourage code modularity by breaking down tasks into separate functions for each operation (adding, removing, displaying tasks).
