💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with ascend-sdk 
Create a mini-application called 'Ascend Task Manager' using the Python package 'ascend-sdk'. This application will serve as a user-friendly interface for managing tasks and resources on the Apex Ascend Platform. Here are the key functionalities your app should have:

1. **User Authentication**: Implement a secure login system where users can sign up and log in to their accounts. Utilize the 'ascend-sdk' to authenticate users against the Apex Ascend Platform's API.
2. **Task Management**: Allow users to create, edit, delete, and view tasks. Each task should include details such as name, description, priority level, start date, end date, and status (e.g., pending, in progress, completed).
3. **Resource Allocation**: Users should be able to allocate resources (such as CPUs, GPUs, memory, etc.) to their tasks directly from the app. Use the 'ascend-sdk' to manage resource allocation on the platform.
4. **Notifications**: Set up a notification system that alerts users via email or SMS when a task reaches a certain milestone or deadline. Integrate with external services like SendGrid or Twilio for sending notifications.
5. **Analytics Dashboard**: Provide an analytics dashboard that shows statistics about the tasks and resources being managed. Include visualizations of task completion rates, resource usage trends, and more.
6. **Backup and Restore**: Implement a feature that allows users to back up their task data and restore it if needed. Ensure that the backup process is seamless and secure.
7. **Integration Testing**: Before deploying the app, conduct thorough integration testing to ensure all features work correctly with the 'ascend-sdk' and any other third-party services used.
8. **Documentation**: Write comprehensive documentation detailing how to set up and use the app, including any necessary configuration steps and troubleshooting tips.

To utilize the 'ascend-sdk', you'll need to first install it via pip. Then, familiarize yourself with its API documentation to understand how to authenticate users, manage tasks and resources, and handle errors. Remember to handle exceptions gracefully and provide informative error messages to users. Good luck!
