Introduction to the Project
2:20In this course we'll create a time tracker to keep track of the time spent on projects. In this video we'll take a look at the finished application.
In this course,
0:00
we'll create a time tracker to keep
track of the time spent on projects.
0:01
These projects could be personal
projects like you're learning or
0:05
doing here at Tree House, business
projects that you're getting paid for, or
0:08
charity projects where you're volunteering
your time to build your portfolio.
0:12
But no matter which type of
project you're working on,
0:17
it can be helpful to keep track
of the time you're spending.
0:19
Let's take a look at
the finished application.
0:23
The home page of our Time Tracker app
gives us three options, Add Task,
0:26
Add Project, and View Report.
0:31
When we click Add Task,
0:34
we're taken to a form where we must
fill out all the required information.
0:36
The projects are populated in a drop-down,
and
0:40
our date field requires a valid date and
format.
0:43
Once our time is added were taken to
a task list page where we can add a new
0:53
task, select a task to edit,
Or delete a task.
0:57
We can also access this
page through the navigation
1:06
at the top by clicking on Tasks.
1:08
When we click Projects in the navigation,
were taken to a project list page
1:11
where we can add a new project, choose
a project to edit, or delete a project.
1:16
When we choose Add Project,
1:21
were taken to a project page where we
must fill out the required information.
1:22
Finally, in the navigation,
we have Reports.
1:30
This takes us to a page that gives us
a report for our time and allows us to
1:33
choose different filters for the report
based on Category, Project, and Date.
1:38
This is a fairly basic application and
1:47
there are many more features that you can
add, but you can start using it right away
1:49
to track the time that you're
spending learning to program.
1:53
As you use the application, you'll think
of more features that you'd like to have.
1:57
Adding those features is
a great way to learn.
2:01
To give you a head start,
2:04
I've provided the shell of the project
including CSS styles and forms.
2:05
I've also included a SQLite
database with all the tables and
2:09
fields that you'll need,
as well as some initial test data.
2:13
So let's get started connecting
all those pieces together.
