How To Create Project Boards and Use Issues¶
You can create Issues to highlight new features, bugs and break upcoming goals of a project into smaller chunks. You can create GitHub Issues and include Task Lists for each task that you plan to work on.
Here is an example Issue that we created to highlight a certain task for our project.
We use project boards to organize the tasks within the team.
Once your project board is created, begin to create issues and populate the board with them
Create an issue for every task you plan to work on
Break issues down into smaller pieces if they cannot be completed in a single sprint
Be specific in the description of the issue
Tag other related issues with a ‘#’ as necessary
Provide acceptance criteria for when the issue can be closed
Assign yourself or your teammates who you plan to work with on the task to the issue
Add the issues to the New column of you project board
When you’re almost ready to begin working on an issue, move it to the To Do column
Once you start work on an issue, move it to the In Progress column
