The TaskManager

The application provides functionality to manage your tasks. You can create new task, set its status, category and priority. Every category can be edited or removed. If you remove a category then all tasks in it will be marked as archived and can't be shown anymore. You also can change your task's description, priority or status. All categories have its own boards to share with any registered user. All users you share boards with have one of two available roles are reader and writer, all roles can be changed at any time.

Example of .env file:

POSTGRES_USER=postgres  # postgres db username
POSTGRES_HOST=db

VK_SECRET_KEY=YOUR_VK_SECRET_KEY
TG_TOKEN=your_secret_telegram_bot_token
