To do App with vanilla Javascript and Sortable JS

Solution retrospective
This was my first time working with the DOM, and I learned a lot throughout the process. I got hands-on experience handling not only click events, but also screen resize events. I also took the opportunity to reflect on function design—understanding when and why to wrap code in reusable functions to make my script cleaner and more efficient.
To ensure I was following clean code practices, I added prettier and eslint to check basic coding rules that I personally like to follow. These tools helped me make sure that those principles are applied throughout the entire project.
When it comes to styling, I explored how to implement a dark theme using existing CSS classes and specificity, avoiding unnecessary or redundant CSS rules.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?One unexpected challenge was dealing with styling issues on mobile browsers, particularly in Chrome. I discovered that Android often applies default styles to elements like scrollbars and sticky hover states, which are very difficult to override with CSS. These limitations forced me to rethink and redesign certain parts of the interface to ensure a better user experience.
The toughest part of the project was managing the interaction between drag-and-drop functionality and vertical scrolling on mobile devices. Scrolling through draggable tasks was frustrating, so I ended up adding space on the right side of the task container to enable smooth scrolling without interfering with drag-and-drop.
I also had my first experience handling form data directly from HTML, which was a great learning opportunity.

What specific areas of your project would you like help with?If someone knows how to add custom styles (especially width) to scrollbar on Chrome mobile, it would be very helpful. I haven't found and effective way yet.
