Project: Task Manager App

Explore how to build a basic Task Manager app in C++ that lets you view, add, and save tasks using file handling, vectors, functions, loops, and conditionals. This lesson guides you through creating a functional program with menus and user input, reinforcing key programming concepts.

We'll cover the following...

Let’s build a basic Task Manager app! The user will be able to view tasks, add tasks, and save them to a file. When the app starts, it will load existing tasks from a file.

You’ll practice:
