Designed and developed a task management web app using PHP/mySQL for internal use. Requests come in via a Wufoo form. Utilizing the Wufoo API, the web app checks to see if there is a new request and stores it in a database. Each task is listed in a row. From the main “dashboard” view, the task can be assigned to a user, updated with a status ( pending, review, design, etc… ), or archived. Each task has detailed data associated with the request that can be expanded or collapsed.
