Just create a github repository (privately if you want) and update a README.md file and journal at the end chronologically or reverse chronologically depending on how you think of your journal.
I've been doing this since 2013 and it really helps me get things done.
Because it's the ONE place you go to to plan and see what you need to do, you don't have to remember hundreds of different buckets where information goes and is forgotten. It's all there in one place.
Do you mean personal programming projects or in general?
Why should I be the only one to suffer through these ceremonies, might as well indoctrinate the family.
Honestly, probably a good thing to learn kids how to verbally fake progress and work from an early age and make them self sound helpful and important. As long as they are told it is only OK to lie during Scrums.
I've been using it for more than 10 years now to track personal todos and projects.
The phone app is also smooth and to the point.
Joking aside, how would you use this tool for your private tasks?
Just use MS Todo or Apple Reminders or something. That's all you need for personal stuff and it costs a grand total of zero.
Jokes aside, I’ve found the Todoist app really great for managing the chaos that’s my life and making sure the things that need doing get done!
I'd like to hear more. Do you think that full-fledged issue tracker is a benefit, even if you're not working with other people?
My intuition is that if you have multiple tasks in a project, and you're the only one working on them, a simple list should be enough?
