Presenting data obtained from the user
Manipulating data
Somehow saving data
Synchronizing data with a server

Each one out of the list of Todos has a description, due date, and containing list (Family, Personal, Work, and so on), which can be used to filter and catalogue the tasks. A checkbox indicates whether the corresponding task is done or still open.
The user can perform three different actions: edit, delete, or set a particular Todo task...
