Poem

A whisk of code, a hop of delight,
“Created By” now glimmers in edit’s light.
I nudge the form with gentle care,
Names appear—truth laid bare.
With UserIcon’s tidy gleam,
Trace the maker of each dream. 🐇✨

65-70: LGTM: Safe mapping of createdBy into form defaults – todo.createdBy.name and .id align with TTaskCreatedBy.

[MayankBansal12]

can createdBy be optional in a task?

[shobhan-sundar-goutam]

optional is there to avoid any issues for Create Task. createdBy is used only for edit todo modal. Please check the new PR #204
