I'm coding up a To-Do List website that asks the user for the task, the importance of the task (choose between two options: low, high) and the due date for said task. The plan is to show the user a list and place items that are of more importance or the due date is coming up for at the very front of the list.
I know the general gist of storing text inputs but am completely lost as to how to store something like a date. Even more so trying to understand how to set a countdown for the tasks.
I'm pretty new to coding as this is the first project that I have started, but any solutions or answers you give I will be grateful for.
This is the page on the site where users give input The /addrec route is the backend of the page that should be recieving user input
