people are too busy discussing whether others should or shouldn't learn coding.

i should say that i really liked the design. it is simple and elegant.

i have a suggestion though. since you let me create tasks without signing up or signing in, why don't you keep them in local storage so when i close and reopen the app some other time, during the day, my list greets me?

Thanks for taking the time to check out the app and give feedback!

Tasks should have persisted across sessions, but when I changed from the "beta" to "live" URL I forgot to update the cookie settings. It should work now.

I had thought about using local storage, but opted instead for a "guest key" stored as a cookie that ties to the tasks in the database. It's definitely important for tasks to never disappear, one way or another.

Thanks again!
