Product Backlog

A Product Backlog is where the definition of user stories (features) of your project resides. It is something that you should initially create, and maintain as the project evolves. Following are basic guidelines.

How to create a Product Backlog

In your repository you will find a "Projects" tab. Go there and create a new "Project". Call it "ProductBacklog". Within that project you should create a new column titled "ALL". This column will contain all user stories.

Within the "ALL" column you should create stories as "notes". The description given to each story should be no longer that 1-2 sentences. Do not use technical terms - use a language that may be understood by a non-technical "customer".

Sort the notes by their importance (by dragging them). The most important story should be located at the top.

The next step is to create more columns, one for each iteration (or Sprint). Stories should be dragged from the "ALL" column to the matching sprint.
