What is OpenTask?

OpenTask is an open-source and responsive task management web app MVP built with the new Next.js App Router, Vercel, and Supabase.

Motivation

As a senior full-stack engineer passionate about modern web technologies, I built OpenTask in 2023 to learn the new Next.js App Router and React Server Components while creating a practical, user-focused application. It showcases modern web development practices focused on seamless, fast user experiences and faster development cycles.

Tech Stack

I built OpenTask on TypeScript, React 18, the new Next.js App Router, Tailwind CSS, Supabase (Postgres), and Prisma. I set up CI/CD with GitHub Actions and deployed it to Vercel.
