A leading organization partnered with TechHub to develop a powerful task management software to enhance team collaboration and streamline workflow management. Their goal was to create an intuitive task manager system where team members could easily assign, track, and manage tasks in real time. The platform needed to support task creation, user interaction, and instant updates while maintaining a simple yet effective interface to navigate while maximizing productivity and efficiency across the organization.

Key features included:

User Authentication: Secure login via email with OTP or Google accounts for seamless access.
Workspaces & Channels: Users could create and join workspaces, invite members, and manage project channels.
Direct Messaging (DM): Private chats, personal notes, and mute/block options for efficient communication.
Task Management: A robust task manager software allowing users to create and update tasks with assignees, due dates, priorities, and attachments.
Notifications: Real-time alerts via in-app and email notifications for task updates, mentions, and comments.
Collaboration Tools: Task comments with tagging, emojis, and cross-task linking for better team interaction.
Admin Dashboards: Insightful analytics on task performance, team activity, and workspace efficiency.

Challenges

Developing a high-performance task manager system came with several challenges:

User Roles & Access Control: The system required a flexible role-based access model to define permissions for different users (Admin, Member, Guest) while ensuring security and preventing unauthorized access.
Custom Task Behaviors: Tasks had to support various states (e.g., locked, unlocked, reassigned), depending on user roles and completion status. Implementing these dynamic behaviors required a highly adaptable architecture.
Real-Time Collaboration & Notifications: With multiple team members working on the same task simultaneously, real-time updates and notifications were critical for smooth communication and avoiding task duplication or delays.

TechHub’s Solutions

To address these challenges, TechHub developed a scalable and feature-rich task manager software using a modern tech stack.

Optimized Roles & Permissions

Implemented a role-based access control (RBAC) system using NestJS, ensuring precise user permissions.
Designed the frontend with ReactJS and NextJS, displaying relevant UI components based on user roles to prevent unauthorized task access.
