Background (What made you decide to build this particular app? What inspired you?)

The decision to build Whimsical Tasks was inspired by the desire to create a unique task management experience. We wanted to challenge the traditional approach of accumulating endless task lists and introduce a fresh, time-bound concept. The idea of adding a touch of whimsy and urgency to task completion sparked our inspiration, aiming to make productivity more engaging and enjoyable for users.

How I built it (How did you utilize GitHub Actions or GitHub Codespaces? Did you learn something new along the way? Pick up a new skill?)

I utilized both GitHub Actions and GitHub Codespaces.I utilized GitHub Actions to automate tasks and streamline our development workflow, while GitHub Codespaces provided a cloud-based IDE. Through these tools, we improved automation skills, enhanced development pipelines, and gained proficiency in cloud-based IDEs.

New skill: github workflow
