Is this a feature for the backend or frontend?

Backend

What would you like?

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to share a suggestion that I believe would greatly improve the user experience.

Currently, when a task’s deadline passes, there is no automatic notification to inform the user about it. I think it would be very helpful if the system could send a notification when a task expires. This would help users stay on top of their responsibilities and take timely action if needed.

I would be very grateful if you could consider implementing this feature in a future update. Thank you for your hard work and for continuously improving the product!

Why is this needed?

Maybe this can be added as an addition to the due date, e.g. as a reminder (1 day/week before etc.)
