To Do List Project in JavaScript

This JavaScript project helps you to create a to do list to add/remove tasks. It comes with a decent interface to add tasks and mark them as done. Users can also clear the task list with one click.

How to Create To Do List Project in JavaScript

1. First of all, create the HTML structure as follows:

  <div class="phone">
  <div class="header">
    <h2>Pure JS Todo</h2>
    <p>Revisiting the beauty of pure javascript</p>
  
    <div class="removeText">🗑 Clean Checked Tasks</div>
  </div>
  <div class="todo-body">
    <ul class="todo-list">
      <li class="todo-item"><input type="checkbox"/> Welcome to your todo list</li>
    </ul>
  </div>
  <input type="text" class="todoInput" placeholder="Enter a task and press enter"/>
</div>
<!-- partial -->
  <script  src="./js/script.js"></script>

2. After that, add the following CSS styles to your project:

*{
  margin:0;
  padding:0 ;
  box-sizing: border-box !important;
}
 body {
    font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, sans-serif !important;
   background: #f4f4f4;
}

.phone{
  position:relative;
  margin:4% auto;
  width:360px;
  height:660px;
  border:1px solid #e6e6e6;
  border-radius:8px;
  overflow:hidden;
  background:#fff;
}

.header{
  position:relative;
  padding:25px;
  width:100%;
  background: linear-gradient(to right, #ff416c, #ff4b2b); 
  color:#ffffff;
  line-height:28px !important;
}
.removeText{
  font-weight:bolder;
  cursor:pointer;
  padding:4px 15px;
  display:inline;
  border-radius:30px;
  text-align:center;
  border:1px solid #fff;
}

.header p{
  font-size:14px; 
}

.todo-body{
  position:relative;  
  width:100%;
  height:500px;
  overflow-y:scroll;
}

.todo-body::-webkit-scrollbar{
    background:transparent;
  width:1px;
}
.todo-list{
    list-style:none;
}

.todo-list .todo-item{
    padding:20px;
    border-bottom:1px solid #e7e7e7;
    color:#717171;
}

.todo-item.checked{
  text-decoration: line-through;
}

input[type="checkbox"]{
    position:relative;
    top:3px;
    margin-right:10px;
    width:17px;
    height:17px;

}

.todoInput{
  position:absolute;
  bottom:0;
  left:0;
  padding:20px;
  width:100%;
  border:0;
  border-top: 1px solid #e7e7e7;
}

3. Finally, add the following JavaScript code and done.

class TodoList {
    constructor() {
        this.todos = new Map();
        this.todoContainer = document.querySelector(".todo-body");
        this.todoList = document.querySelector(".todo-list");
        this.todoInput = document.querySelector(".todoInput");
        this.removeButton = document.querySelector(".removeText");
        this.bindEvents();
    }

    bindEvents() {
        this.todoInput.onkeyup = (e) => {
            if (e.keyCode === 13) {
                this.addTodo(e.target.value);
                this.todoInput.value = "";
            }
        }

        this.todoList.onmouseup = (e) => {
            if (e.target.checked !== undefined) {
                let id = e.target.getAttribute("data-key");
                this.markTodo(id, e.target.checked);
            }
        }
        this.removeButton.onclick = this.clean.bind(this);
    }
    markTodo(id, isChecked) {
        let obj = this.todos.get(id);
        obj.checked = !isChecked;
        this.todos.set(id, obj);
        this.render();
    }
    addTodo(text = "Blank Task") {
        let id = Date.now() + "";
        this.todos.set(id, {
            id: id,
            text: text,
            checked: false
        });
        this.render();
    }
    clean() {
        this.todos.forEach((todo, key) => {
            if (todo.checked) {
                this.todos.delete(key)
            }
        });
        this.render();
    }
    template(item, id) {
        return (`<li class="todo-item ${(item.checked ? "checked" : "")}" data-key="${id}"><input type="checkbox" data-key="${id}" ${(item.checked ? "checked" : "")}/> ${ item.text }</li>`);
    }
    render() {
        let todoElements = [];
        this.todos.forEach((item, key) => {
            todoElements.push(this.template(item, key))
        });

        this.todoList.innerHTML = todoElements.join(" ")
    }

}

if (document.readyState === "complete" || document.addEventListener) {
    const List = new TodoList();
}
