details

the task manager CLI is a command-line tool designed to efficiently manage tasks using the terminal.

it allows users to add, list, retrieve and delete tasks. tasks are then stored in a JSON file, ensuring persistence across sessions.

code overview

the core functionality is defined in the library. it includes methods to add, list, get, update and delete tasks, as well as to load and save tasks to a JSON file. the CLI is implemented using the clap crate, which provides a simple interface to define commands and arguments. the main application uses the task manager library to perform the desired operations based on user input.
