Summary by CodeRabbit

• Documentation
  • Updated the README to document a new endpoint for retrieving a single task by its ID, including detailed response and error information.
  • Improved formatting and anchor links for existing routes in the requests table for consistency.

Walkthrough

The README documentation for the todo-backend API was updated to describe a new endpoint, GET /v1/tasks/{taskId}, for retrieving a single task by its MongoDB ObjectId. The change adds this endpoint to the requests table, provides detailed specifications, and standardizes formatting and anchor links for all routes.

Poem

In the land of tasks where todos grow,
A new endpoint appears, letting you know—
Fetch by ID, so precise and neat,
With clear docs to make dev work sweet.
🐇✨
Now every task, by hex or by name,
Can hop into view—no two are the same!
