Branching Out - Spotlight Edition
At GitHub, we strive to help developers do the best work of their lives. Planning and tracking are at the heart of how great development teams operate and essential to developer velocity. As teams and projects grow, how we work evolves. Tools that hard-code a specific methodology are too specific and rigid to flex to whatever the moment demands. Often, we find ourselves creating a spreadsheet or pulling out a notepad just to have space to think. When we do that our planning is disconnected from where development happens and quickly goes stale.
GitHub Projects connects your planning directly to the work your teams are doing in GitHub and flexibly adapts to whatever your team needs at any point. Built like a spreadsheet, project tables give you a live canvas to filter, sort, and group issues and pull requests. You can use this function, or the accompanying project board, along with custom fields, to track a sprint, plan a feature, or manage a large-scale release.
Take a look at our feature planning example for ideas on how this might work for you.
With the adaptability GitHub Projects offers, you can create views aligned to how you work. We all need to stay on top of things and by building backlogs, we can keep an eye on where the team is and what might be a bottleneck for us to prioritize so we keep work moving smoothly.?
For some inspiration on using Projects for your backlog check out this quick walkthrough.
What better way to know how things are going than to get a little insight? Helpful charts can make data a piece of cake to understand and use. Configure and track cycle velocity, current work status, and complex visualizations like cumulative flow diagrams.
Our video below gives you a quick breakdown of some ways to look into your insights and make data-based decisions.
