A To-Do List App helps you remember tasks.
In simple words:
👉 You add tasks
👉 You see tasks
👉 You delete tasks when done
Examples:
-
Buy milk

Call a friend
2. What Will We Build?
We will build a simple console-based To-Do List App using Python.
Features:
✔ Add task
✔ View tasks
✔ Remove task
✔ Exit app

1️⃣ Store tasks in a list
2️⃣ Show menu
3️⃣ Take user input
4️⃣ Perform action
4. Step 1: Create Empty Task List
👉 This list will store all tasks.
5. Step 2: Show Menu to User
6. Full Simple To-Do List App (Main Code)
✅ Complete Code
7. How This Code Works (Easy Explanation)
while True
👉 Keeps the app running again and again.
tasks.append(task)
