Project: Building a Task Manager API

via CodeSignal

Overview

Build a fully functional backend API for managing tasks that mirrors the patterns you’ve already used for Users: centralized response helpers, a thin route layer wrapped with logging, and a clear service layer. Secure endpoints with an API key and add a small UI “playground” to exercise and validate behavior end-to-end.
