Project planning for developers

Create issues, break them into tasks, track relationships, add custom fields, and have conversations. Visualize large projects as tables, boards, or roadmaps, and automate everything with code.

Bored of boards?
Switch to tables and roadmaps.

Built like a spreadsheet, project tables give you a live workspace to filter, sort, and group issues and pull requests. Tailor them to your needs with custom fields and saved views, then visualize your project with roadmaps.

Break issues into actionable tasks

Tackle complex issues with task lists and track their status with new progress indicators. Convert tasks into their own issues and navigate your work hierarchy.

Move conversations forward

Express ideas with GitHub Flavored Markdown, mention contributors, react with emoji, clarify with attachments, and see references from commits, pull requests, releases, and deploys. Coordinate by assigning contributors and teams, or by adding them to milestones and projects. All in a single timeline.

The latest report from our testers is in and our sprite animations are a little off. Good news is not by much, so we should be able to squeeze this into our current sprint.

  • @grrretel to share beta tester report
  • @cameronfoxly has a video to share showing before and after
  • @chiedo to push the change and get the team reviewing

Create views
for how you work

Save views for sprints, backlogs, teams, or releases. Rank, group, sort, slice and filter to suit the occasion. Create swimlanes, share templates and set work in progress limits.

Work at keyboard speed

No mouse? No problem. Every action you can take with the mouse has a keyboard shortcut or command. Filter, sort, group, and assign issues. Your hands never leave the keyboard.

Extend issues
with custom fields

Track metadata like iterations, priority, story points, dates, notes, and links. Add custom fields to projects and edit from the issue sidebar.

Now with iteration cycle planning

Track progress with project insights

Track the health of your current iteration cycle, milestone, or any other custom field you create with new project insights. Identify bottlenecks and issues blocking the team from making progress with the new burn up chart.

Share best practices with project templates

Create templates to share and reuse when getting started with a new project. Share inspiration across teams and get started with a single click.

Manage work automatically

Accelerate your project planning with workflows. Automatically triage issues, set values for custom fields, and auto add or archive issues.

Issues, where you need them

Issues can be viewed, created, and managed in your browser, your favorite terminal, or on your phone or tablet.
