Determine project management tool #2

My personal preference is ZenHub, since it embeds into Github and is free for open source projects.

I like Trello. Open to anything. https://codetree.com looks interesting too.

We also have a free account through cfa with http://waffle.io, which seems a lot like codetree as well.

While I love new tools, my natural inclination is to use GitHub issues only until it doesn't work for us anymore. Each additional tool creates a coordination cost.

If either of you feel strongly about a PM tool, then by all means, let's do it. You'll come to find out I'm quite opinionated, but pretty easy-going and open-minded ;)

The reason I like ZenHub is that it allows you to just use github issues if you want, with the added capability to Github to allow kanban organization of them, with the added bonus of managing issues across repos, which we will most likely have several to manage. Zenhub, also, is a browser extension, so beyond the initial install, you don't have to think about logging into another platform, you just go to the boards tab in the repo.

If we end up going the route of just github issues, I'll most likely still use zenhub personally for organization of the issues. Let's make sure that we are using the tags effectively as we go, though.

I'm very :+1: to anything that overlays Github issues. I haven't personally used any that do, but ZenHub looks good -- I also recently dicovered of waffle.io which is similar in principle.

therebelrobot commented 8 years ago

Kk. I guess with this one use whatever tool you're most comfortable with, but we'll keep the threads here in github issues :)
