Task board tutorial

Our is the central place where we track what we do. The purpose of this board is organization and sharing knowledge:

  1. Reminding ourselves of things we have to do
  2. Letting others in the team know of things we did or how we did it
  3. Planning things that could be done in the future
  4. Delegating work to another team member
  5. Preparing for tasks or discussing about them

<aside> ⚠️ Important: Parts of the board are public and parts are team-only, please dont add sensitive information to cards. The reason for that is the public Roadmap (more information in the next sections). Examples of sensitive information: personal data from a player, password of our IG account, something told to us in a confidential manner. Examples of not-sensitive information: technical details of a bug that cannot cause total system failure, meetings about partnerships, planning of new features, project's finances.

Workflow

  1. Feel free to create new cards in the board with an empty status representing work that will add value. Ideally, make sure people who will see it later will know what it is about.

  2. When something starts being planned and worked on, avoid making huge work at one block and prefer breaking it into multiple cards until you have the smallest possible tasks that can be delivered independently. There are many reasons for that, but the most important one is

    When a small task that can be delivered independently is done, it can be reviewed and published before the rest is done

  3. Work that has been decided that will be started soon should have their status changed to "To-Do"

  4. Feel free to start working on anything listed as To-Do that you feel excited to work at, but

  5. Avoid having too many cards in implementation stage. In some cases it might be best to pause some works and focus on finishing something. If that happens, add a "paused" tag and move the status back to "To-Do" if it should be started again soon or empty if it has been deprioritized until further notice.
