ChrisTregaskis / slimTodoApp

An application built using Slim framework, OOP and MVC. The application stores todos in a MySQL database and uses a combination of PHP and JavaScript to dynamically display, add, edit and delete items. I included a drag and drop feature to re-organise active todos that saves automatically in DB and is reflected upon page load. The application featured autoloading, dependencies managed with composer and unit testing.
