Managing your work on GitHub

About issues

Use issues to track ideas, enhancements, tasks, or bugs for work on GitHub.
Many projects collect user feedback via a central bug tracker. GitHub's tracker is called "Issues," and can be used with every repository.

About issue and pull request templates

With issue and pull request templates, you can customize and standardize the information you'd like contributors to include when they open issues and pull requests in your repository.

About labels

Labels on GitHub help you organize and prioritize your work. You can apply labels to issues and pull requests to signify priority, category, or any other information you find useful.

About project boards

Project boards on GitHub help you organize and prioritize your work. You can create project boards for specific feature work, comprehensive roadmaps, or even release checklists. With project boards, you have the flexibility to create customized workflows that suit your needs.

Tracking the progress of your work with project boards

You can track and prioritize your work on GitHub by creating a project board with associated issues, pull requests, and notes.

About milestones

You can use milestones to track progress on groups of issues or pull requests in a repository. When you create a milestone, you can associate it with issues and pull requests.

Finding information in a repository

To find detailed information about a repository on GitHub, you can filter, sort, and search issues and pull requests that are relevant to the repository.

About task lists

You can use task lists to create a list of items with checkboxes within pull request and issue comments or Markdown files in your repository.

Task lists render with clickable checkboxes in comments. You can select or unselect the checkboxes to mark them as complete or incomplete.

Task lists render as read-only checkboxes in Markdown files. People with write permissions in the repository can edit the file to select or unselect the checkboxes.

You can view task list summary information in issue and pull request lists, when the task list is in the initial comment.
