What I Built

🚀 What I Built

I created KendoManager, a 🌟 feature-rich, enterprise-grade project management & collaboration platform with modern UI/UX patterns. Here's what it offers:

• 📋 Task Management: Create, edit, delete tasks; track progress 📊; assign priorities 🔝; attach files 📎; manage due dates 🗓️; support parent-child tasks 🌱.
• 👥 Team Collaboration: Real-time member status 🟢🟡🔴; task-based comments 💬; @mentions with notifications 🔔; team profiles 🧑‍💼.
• 📅 Calendar & Scheduling: Event scheduling 🕒; multiple calendar views 🗓️; date marking 🎯; visual analytics 📈.
• 📊 Analytics & Reporting: Task distribution charts 📊; monthly trends 📅; KPI tracking 🎯; interactive dashboards 🖥️.
• 📂 File Management: Upload/download files ⬆️⬇️; categorize and search files 🔍; share files with team members 🤝.

All of this is built using 30+ KendoReact components 🎨, ensuring a polished, interactive, and scalable experience 💻✨.

⚡ Parts of the UI scaffolding were generated and refined using the Kendo AI Coding Assistant 🤖, speeding up development and improving code quality.
