You can see the porject on githbub

The libraries we will use in this project

We will use zustand and react-hot-toast in this project.

To install clsx runthis code in your terminal

npm install zustand

To install react-hot toast runthis code in your terminal

npm install react-hot-toast

Now we can add shadcn-ui to our TodoApp project

npx shadcn-ui@latest init

We will use form, input, dialog and button components form shadcn-ui.

To install these components run this command

npx shadcn-ui@latest add button input form dialog

Your Components folder will look like that after install shadcn-ui components

İmplement ToastProvider in layout.tsx

To do that create a folder in root directory name providers.And create a new file name toast-provider.tsx in this folder.

posviders/toast-provider.tsx

"use client"
import { Toaster } from "react-hot-toast"
export const ToastProvider = () => {
  return <Toaster />
}

Add ToastProvider component in to our layout.tsx

app/layout.tsx

import type { Metadata } from "next"
import { Inter } from "next/font/google"
import "./globals.css"
import { ToastProvider } from "@/providers/toast.provider"
const inter = Inter({ subsets: ["latin"] })
export const metadata: Metadata = {
  title: "Create Next App",
  description: "Generated by create next app",
}
export default function RootLayout({
  children,
}: Readonly<{
  children: React.ReactNode
}>) {
  return (
    <html lang="en">
      <body className={inter.className}>
        <ToastProvider />
        {children}
      </body>
    </html>
  )
}

Create types.ts file in our root directory.

types.ts

export interface Todo {
  id: number
  title: string
  description: string
  done: boolean
}

We will use Todo types whereever we need it.

Now create a Modal component inside components/ui folder name modal.tsx

components/ui/modal.tsx

copy and paste the code inside of your modal.tsx

"use client"
import {
  Dialog,
  DialogContent,
  DialogDescription,
  DialogHeader,
  DialogTitle,
} from "@/components/ui/dialog"
interface ModalProps {
  title: string
  description?: string
  isOpen: boolean
  onClose: () => void
  children?: React.ReactNode
}
const Modal: React.FC<ModalProps> = ({
  title,
  description,
  isOpen,
  onClose,
  children,
}) => {
  const onChange = (open: boolean) => {
    if (!open) {
      onClose()
    }
  }
  return (
    <Dialog open={isOpen} onOpenChange={onChange}>
      <DialogContent>
        <DialogHeader>
          <DialogTitle>{title}</DialogTitle>
          <DialogDescription>{description}</DialogDescription>
        </DialogHeader>
        <div>{children}</div>
      </DialogContent>
    </Dialog>
  )
}
export { Modal }

Your Components folder will look like that after creating modal.tsx

We will keep our todo, todos and todo modal states with zustand. To do that first create a hook folder inside your root directory.

Crete use-todo-modal.tsx in hooks folder.

hooks/use-todo.modal.tsx

import { create } from "zustand"
interface useTodoModalProps {
  isOpen: boolean
  onOpen: () => void
  onClose: () => void
}
export const useTodoModal = create<useTodoModalProps>((set) => ({
  isOpen: false,
  onOpen: () => set({ isOpen: true }),
  onClose: () => set({ isOpen: false }),
}))

We will use todo modal component for adding and updating todos. And keep the states of todo modal components globally and use them whereever you need it without props drilling.

Now Create other hooks that we need

Create an another file inside of your hooks folder name use-todos.tsx. useTodos hooks will keep our todos array and update our todos aray with new todos.

hooks/use-todos.tsx

import { create } from "zustand"
import { Todo } from "@/types"
interface TodoStore {
  todos: Todo[]
  setTodos: (todos: Todo[]) => void
}
export const useTodos = create<TodoStore>((set) => ({
  todos: [],
  setTodos: (todos) => set({ todos }),
}))

Create useSelectedTodo Hook

And finally we need another hook for the application to understand which todo is selected. To do that create use-selected-todo.tsx inside of your hooks folder.

hooks/use-selected-todo.tsx

import { create } from "zustand"
import { Todo } from "@/types"
interface TodoStore {
  todos: Todo[]
  setTodos: (todos: Todo[]) => void
}
export const useTodos = create<TodoStore>((set) => ({
  todos: [],
  setTodos: (todos) => set({ todos }),
}))

Now your hooks folder will look like that

Lets Create Add Todo Form

Create a file with name add-todo-form.tsx inside of your components folder.

components/add-todo-form.tsx

"use client"
import * as z from "zod"
import { zodResolver } from "@hookform/resolvers/zod"
import { useTodoModal } from "@/hooks/use-todo-modal"
import { useTodos } from "@/hooks/use-todos"
import { Todo } from "@/types"
import { Modal } from "@/components/ui/modal"
import { useForm } from "react-hook-form"
import {
  Form,
  FormControl,
  FormField,
  FormItem,
  FormMessage,
} from "@/components/ui/form"
import { Label } from "@/components/ui/label"
import { Input } from "@/components/ui/input"
import { Button } from "@/components/ui/button"
import { useSelectedTodo } from "@/hooks/use-selected-todo"
import { useEffect } from "react"
import toast from "react-hot-toast"
let nextId = 0
const formSchema = z.object({
  title: z.string().min(1, "Title is Required"),
  description: z.string().min(1, "Description is Required"),
})
interface AddTodoFormProps {
  initialData: Todo | null
}
const AddTodoForm: React.FC<AddTodoFormProps> = ({ initialData }) => {
  const todoModal = useTodoModal()
  const setTodos = useTodos((state) => state.setTodos)
  const todos = useTodos((state) => state.todos)
  const setTodo = useSelectedTodo((state) => state.setTodo)
  const selectedTodo = useSelectedTodo((state) => state.todo)
  const form = useForm<z.infer<typeof formSchema>>({
    resolver: zodResolver(formSchema),
    defaultValues: {
      title: initialData?.title || "",
      description: initialData?.description || "",
    },
  })
  const { isSubmitting, isValid } = form.formState
  const title = initialData ? "Update Todo" : "Create Todo"
  const description = initialData
    ? "update todo with form"
    : "Create todo with form"
  const toastMessage = initialData ? "Todo Updated" : "Todo Created"
  const action = initialData ? "Update" : "Create"
  const onSubmit = async (values: z.infer<typeof formSchema>) => {
    if (initialData) {
      const updatedTodos = todos.map((todo) =>
        todo.id === initialData.id ? { ...todo, ...values } : todo
      )
      setTodos(updatedTodos)
      todoModal.onClose()
      setTodo(null)
    } else {
      const newTodo = {
        ...values,
        id: nextId++,
        done: false,
      }
      setTodos([...todos, newTodo])
      form.reset()
      todoModal.onClose()
    }
    toast.success(toastMessage)
  }
  useEffect(() => {
    if (selectedTodo === null) {
      form.setValue("title", "")
      form.setValue("description", "")
    } else if (initialData !== null) {
      form.setValue("title", initialData?.title)
      form.setValue("description", initialData?.description)
    }
  }, [selectedTodo, form, initialData])
  return (
    <Modal
      isOpen={todoModal.isOpen}
      title={title}
      description={description}
      onClose={todoModal.onClose}
    >
      <Form {...form}>
        <form onSubmit={form.handleSubmit(onSubmit)} className="space-y-6">
          <FormField
            control={form.control}
            name="title"
            render={({ field }) => (
              <FormItem>
                <Label>Title</Label>
                <FormControl>
                  <Input placeholder="Todo Title" {...field} />
                </FormControl>
                <FormMessage />
              </FormItem>
            )}
          />
          <FormField
            control={form.control}
            name="description"
            render={({ field }) => (
              <FormItem>
                <Label>Description</Label>
                <FormControl>

                </FormControl>
                <FormMessage />
              </FormItem>
            )}
          />
          <div className="w-full justify-end flex gap-x-2">
            <Button
              type="button"
              variant="outline"
              disabled={isSubmitting}
              onClick={todoModal.onClose}
            >
              Cancel
            </Button>
            <Button type="submit" disabled={isSubmitting || !isValid}>
              {action}
            </Button>
          </div>
        </form>
      </Form>
    </Modal>
  )
}
export { AddTodoForm }

Create TodoApp Component

components/todo-app.tsx

"use client"
import { AddTodoForm } from "./add-todo-form"
import { TodoList } from "./todo-list"
import { useSelectedTodo } from "@/hooks/use-selected-todo"
export const TodoApp = () => {
  const selectedTodo = useSelectedTodo((state) => state.todo)
  return (
    <div className="space-y-4">
      <AddTodoForm initialData={selectedTodo} />
      <TodoList />
    </div>
  )
}

Create TodoList Component

components/todo-list.tsx

import { useTodos } from "@/hooks/use-todos"
import { TodoItem } from "./todo-item"
export const TodoList = () => {
  const todos = useTodos((state) => state.todos)
  return (
    <div className="flex flex-col gap-4 mt-10 pt-10">
      {todos.map((todo) => (
        <TodoItem key={todo.id} todo={todo} />
      ))}
    </div>
  )
}

Create AlertModal component

Before Cretaing TodoItem component create AlertModal component. We will show this alert modal to the user before deleting todo item. create a file inside your components folder name alert-modal.tsx

components/alert-modal.tsx

import { Button } from "./ui/button"
import { Modal } from "./ui/modal"
interface AlertModalProps {
  disabled: boolean
  open: boolean
  onClose: () => void
  onConfirm: () => void
}
const AlertModal: React.FC<AlertModalProps> = ({
  disabled,
  open,
  onClose,
  onConfirm,
}) => {
  return (
    <Modal
      title="Are You Sure to delete"
      description="This action can not be undone!"
      isOpen={open}
      onClose={onClose}
    >
      <div className="flex items-center justify-end gap-x-2">
        <Button onClick={onClose} disabled={disabled} variant="outline">
          Cancel
        </Button>
        <Button onClick={onConfirm} disabled={disabled} variant="destructive">
          Delete
        </Button>
      </div>
    </Modal>
  )
}
export { AlertModal }

Create TodoItem Component

components/todo-item.tsx

"use client"
import { Todo } from "@/types"
import { Button } from "./ui/button"
import { Check, Pencil, Trash } from "lucide-react"
import { useState } from "react"
import { useTodos } from "@/hooks/use-todos"
import { AlertModal } from "./alert-modal"
import { useSelectedTodo } from "@/hooks/use-selected-todo"
import { useTodoModal } from "@/hooks/use-todo-modal"
import { cn } from "@/lib/utils"
import toast from "react-hot-toast"
interface TodoItemProps {
  todo: Todo
}
export const TodoItem: React.FC<TodoItemProps> = ({ todo }) => {
  const [open, setOpen] = useState(false)
  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false)
  const todos = useTodos((state) => state.todos)
  const setTodos = useTodos((state) => state.setTodos)
  const [done, setDone] = useState(false)
  const setTodo = useSelectedTodo((state) => state.setTodo)
  const todoModal = useTodoModal()
  const onDeleteTodo = async (todoId: number) => {
    try {
      setLoading(true)
      setTodos(todos.filter((todo) => todo.id !== todoId))
      toast.success("Todo Deleted")
    } catch (error) {
      toast.error("Something Went Wrong")
    } finally {
      setLoading(false)
      setOpen(false)
    }
  }
  const handleChange = (newTodo: Todo) => {
    setDone((prev) => !prev)
    if (todo.done) {
      toast.success("Todo undone")
    } else {
      toast.success("Todo done")
    }
    setTodos(
      todos.map((todo) =>
        todo.id === newTodo.id ? { ...todo, done: !todo.done } : todo
      )
    )
  }
  return (
    <>
      <AlertModal
        open={open}
        onClose={() => setOpen(false)}
        disabled={loading}
        onConfirm={() => onDeleteTodo(todo.id)}
      />
      <div
        className={cn(
          "flex  gap-2 bg-white p-4 rounded-md border",
          todo.done && "bg-teal-50"
        )}
      >
        <Button
          onClick={() => handleChange(todo)}
          size="icon"
          variant="outline"
          className={cn(
            todo.done &&
              "bg-teal-500 text-white hover:bg-teal-600 hover:text-white"
          )}
        >
          <Check className="w-4 h-4" />
        </Button>
        <div>
          <h4
            className={cn(
              "text-xl font-semibold tracking-tight",
              todo.done && "line-through"
            )}
          >
            {todo.title}
          </h4>
          <p className=" font-semibold tracking-tight">{todo.description}</p>
        </div>
        <div className="flex flex-col gap-2 ml-auto">
          <Button
            onClick={() => setOpen(true)}
            variant="destructive"
            size="icon"
          >
            <Trash className="w-4 h-4" />
          </Button>
          <Button
            onClick={() => {
              setTodo(todo)
              todoModal.onOpen()
            }}
            variant="outline"
            size="icon"
          >
            <Pencil className="w-4 h-4" />
          </Button>
        </div>
      </div>
    </>
  )
}

Add Todo App inside your Home Page

app/page.tsx


import { TodoApp } from "@/components/todo-app"
export default function Home() {
  return (
    <div className="max-w-[600px] mx-auto my-6 py-6 px-4">
    
      <TodoApp />
    </div>
  )
}

Now start your application

npm run dev

Crate TodoClient Component

You need to add a button to open todo modal component.

To do that create a new file inside your components folder name client.tsx.

components/client.tsx

"use client"
import { useTodoModal } from "@/hooks/use-todo-modal"
import { Button } from "./ui/button"
export const TodoClient = () => {
  const todoModal = useTodoModal()
  return (
    <div className="flex items-center justify-between">
      <h1 className="text-3xl font-semibold tracking-tighter">
        Todo App Next.js 14
      </h1>
      <Button
        onClick={() => {
          todoModal.onOpen()
        }}
      >
        Add Todo
      </Button>
    </div>
  )
}

Add TodoClient Component inside of Todoapp Component like that

Your TodoApp component will look like that

component/todo-app.tsx

"use client"
import { AddTodoForm } from "./add-todo-form"
import { TodoClient } from "./client"
import { TodoList } from "./todo-list"
import { useSelectedTodo } from "@/hooks/use-selected-todo"
export const TodoApp = () => {
  const selectedTodo = useSelectedTodo((state) => state.todo)
  return (
    <div className="space-y-4">
      <TodoClient />
      <AddTodoForm initialData={selectedTodo} />
      <TodoList />
    </div>
  )
}

Great Job! Now you create a Todo App with Next.js 14 , shadcn-ui and using zustand which is a state anagement library. if you have any problem with codes you can check my github respository.
