ScrumMD
ScrumMD started with a question: What if we could have a scrum board driven entirely by md files and the CLI, and use it with git?
I know that it's going to be of niche use, but it opens up a number of great ways to do the scrum process. For instance:
- You can run standup for
sprint1with:
vim `sbl -b sprint1`
- You can manage your cards with git...
- ... and can add them in the repository that they are for
- It's all text - so integrate with whatever you want
The very basics are that you have a scrum folder, and you can put cards inside
it. A card is very simple - it's just a markdown file with at least a summary
field. For instance -
---
Summary: Make the thing
---
# Description
Take the steps to make the thing
# Dependencies
- [[thing02]]
- [[thing03]]
would be a completely valid card that can be explored with ScrumMD. But - per the documentation - it does a bunch more!
There's also some funky other tools like sboard that let you view a visual
representation of the Scrum board in the console - for instance:
$ sboard --group-by status
