                <button className="p-5 bg-blue-600 rounded-lg text-white" type="submit">

    );
}


"use server"

export async function createTask(e: FormData) {
    const body = Object.fromEntries(e)
    console.log("🚀 ~ file: actions.ts:5 ~ createTask ~ body:", body)
    console.log(JSON.stringify({e}))
}
