Tasks: Full-Stack Integration & UI Experience
Input: Design documents from /specs/002-fullstack-ui-integration/
Prerequisites: plan.md, spec.md, research.md, data-model.md, contracts/, quickstart.md
Organization: Tasks are grouped by user story to enable independent implementation and testing of each story.
Note: Tests are not included as they were not explicitly requested in the feature specification. This feature focuses on integration and polish of existing functionality.
Format: [ID] [P?] [Story] Description
- [P]: Can run in parallel (different files, no dependencies)
- [Story]: Which user story this task belongs to (e.g., US1, US2, US3)
- Include exact file paths in descriptions
Path Conventions
- Web app:
backend/src/,frontend/src/ - All paths are relative to repository root
Phase 1: Setup (6 tasks)
Purpose: Verify project structure and dependencies

Dependencies & Execution Order
Phase Dependencies
- Setup (Phase 1): No dependencies - can start immediately
- Foundational (Phase 2): Depends on Setup completion - BLOCKS all user stories
- User Stories (Phase 3-7): All depend on Foundational phase completion
- User stories can proceed in parallel (if staffed)
- Or sequentially in priority order (P1 → P2 → P3 → P4 → P5)
- Polish (Phase 8): Depends on all user stories being complete
User Story Dependencies
- User Story 1 (P1 - MVP): Can start after Foundational (Phase 2) - No dependencies on other stories
- User Story 2 (P2): Can start after Foundational (Phase 2) - Independent of US1 but builds on existing components
- User Story 3 (P3): Can start after Foundational (Phase 2) - Independent of US1/US2
- User Story 4 (P4): Can start after Foundational (Phase 2) - Independent of US1/US2/US3
- User Story 5 (P5): Can start after Foundational (Phase 2) - Independent of all other stories
Within Each User Story
- Tasks marked [P] can run in parallel (different files)
- Tasks without [P] may have dependencies on previous tasks in the same story
- Complete all tasks in a story before moving to next priority
Parallel Opportunities
- Phase 1: T003, T004, T005, T006 can run in parallel
- Phase 2: T009, T010, T011, T012 can run in parallel
- Phase 3 (US1): T014, T015 can run in parallel
- Phase 4 (US2): T022, T023, T024, T025 can run in parallel
- Phase 5 (US3): T030, T031, T032, T033, T034, T035 can run in parallel
- Phase 6 (US4): T038, T039, T040 can run in parallel
- Phase 7 (US5): T045, T046, T047, T048 can run in parallel
- Phase 8: T051, T052 can run in parallel
Parallel Example: User Story 2 (Responsive UI States)
# Launch all UI state additions in parallel:
Task: "Add loading state to TaskList in frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskList.tsx"
Task: "Add empty state to TaskList in frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskList.tsx"
Task: "Add error state to TaskList in frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskList.tsx"
Task: "Add loading state to TaskForm in frontend/src/components/tasks/TaskForm.tsx"

Notes
- [P] tasks = different files, no dependencies - can run in parallel
- [Story] label maps task to specific user story for traceability
- Each user story should be independently completable and testable
- Most tasks are verification/refinement since Specs 1 & 2 already implemented core functionality
- Focus is on UI polish (loading states, empty states, error handling) and integration
- Manual testing per quickstart.md is critical for validation
- Commit after each task or logical group
- Stop at any checkpoint to validate story independently
