1. Introduction

This program is really just a Todo list. 🤗

2. Quick Start

1. Ensure that you have Java 11 or above installed on your computer
2. Download the latest release
3. Enter the command java -jar duke-0.2.0.jar and the GUI should appear within a few seconds

3. Features

Here is a list of the available commands that this program understands:

1. todo
2. event
3. deadline
4. list
5. done
6. delete
7. find

Note that this program is case-sensitive (ie. done is interpreted differently to Done or DONE), and all commands are lower cased.

4. Usage

Commands (listed in section 3 above) must always come first for this program to correctly understand the command.

The keyword within the angle brackets indicate what you should replace them with. For example, when you see done <number>, replace the <number> with a suitable number like done 2.
