Installation

See INSTALL.md

Adding a story

  • Click new story in the right hand menu.
  • Fill in the form.
  • Click save - make sure you have write access to the database!

Using the board

  • Stories can be propagated through the various states by dragging them or by clicking edit and setting the state via the drop down.
  • Once stories are in the "Done" state you can archive them. This removes them from the board (a tidy board is a happy board) but leaves them in the database, should you need to look at them in the future.
  • You can define targets for stories (e.g. for a release) by clicking edit and choosing the target from the drop down, click "add new" to add a new state to the board. You can filter the board to show only stories for a particular target via the target drop down in the right hand menu.

Known issues

  • Support for IE is limited (e.g. it's not tested, and likely doesn't work...). Sorry. We'll fix it in the next iteration, hopefully.
  • Users aren't properly managed currently - you just need to have write access to the database. In the future we'll allow filtering the board by "owner", filtered replication (this is partially supported now) and provide a login interface.
  • The burndown chart is broken since the move to Backbone.js - we've not had the time to reimplement it and it's not the most important part of the software.
