What You'll Build Today

A simple task list app with:

• Add new tasks
• Mark tasks as complete
• Delete tasks
• Filter by status

Nothing fancy - the goal is to understand how Base44 works before we build anything complex.

What is Base44?

Base44 is one of several AI app builders that have emerged recently (alongside Bolt, Lovable, Replit, etc.). You describe what you want in plain English, and it generates a working application.

What it handles automatically:

• Frontend (UI and design)
• Backend (server logic and APIs)
• Database (data storage)
• Hosting (your app is live on a subdomain)

What you should know going in:

• These tools work best for MVPs and internal tools
• You'll hit limitations on complex features
• The output isn't always production-ready
• Iteration through conversation is key
