Project Description

The drag-and-drop feature is an interaction that allows someone to drag and drop an item. The react-beautiful-dnd library allows us to create accessible drag-and-drop lists with minimal code.

In this project, we’ll use react-beautiful-dnd to build a Trello clone with drag-and-drop functionality for tasks and columns. We’ll also integrate Firebase into our application to perform CRUD operations on tasks.

First, we’ll create a simple board to display the tasks and columns on the screen. Then, we’ll add drag-and-drop functionality to move the columns horizontally. Next, we’ll create task cards to represent a task in a column, with the functionality to edit or delete a task. We’ll also integrate Firebase to fetch and store the tasks and columns data in a database. The final version of the application will allow moving tasks between columns and the columns themselves. It will also allow adding, updating, and deleting tasks from any column.

The final layout of the board will look like the following image:
