Description

@luizhcastro

Description

Implement comprehensive project management functionality that enables users to organize, track, and manage projects effectively. This includes project creation, tracking, milestones, and overall project lifecycle management.

Motivation

  • Provide structure for organizing work at a higher level than individual tasks
  • Enable better planning and tracking of larger initiatives
  • Support project-based workflows common in software development
  • Facilitate resource allocation and timeline management
  • Enable project progress reporting and visibility

Scope

Core Project Management

  • Create, edit, and delete projects
  • Project name, description, and metadata
  • Project status (planning, active, completed, archived)
  • Project start and end dates
  • Project owner/lead assignment
  • Project visibility settings (public/private)
  • Project archiving functionality

Project Organization

  • Assign tasks to projects
  • Create project milestones
  • Define project goals/objectives
  • Project tags/categories
  • Project templates for common project types
  • Sub-projects or project hierarchy (optional)

Project Tracking & Metrics

  • Project progress tracking (% completion)
  • Task count by status within project
  • Project timeline/Gantt view
  • Milestone tracking and completion
  • Project velocity metrics
  • Burn-down charts
  • Time tracking per project (if time tracking exists)

Project Views & Navigation

  • Projects list view with filters
  • Project detail/overview page
  • Project board view (all tasks in project)
  • Project timeline view
  • Project members view
  • Project activity feed

Collaboration Features

  • Assign team members to projects
  • Project-specific permissions
  • Project discussions/comments
  • Project updates and announcements
  • @mention notifications in project context

Backend Requirements

  • Projects database table and relationships
  • API endpoints for project CRUD operations
  • Project membership management
  • Aggregate queries for project metrics
  • Project permission enforcement
  • Project activity logging

Acceptance Criteria

  • Users can create and manage multiple projects
  • Tasks can be associated with projects
  • Project progress is accurately calculated and displayed
  • Project milestones can be created and tracked
  • Team members can be assigned to projects
  • Project views provide clear visibility into status
  • Projects can be archived when completed
  • Project data is properly scoped and secured

Technical Considerations

  • Consider integration with existing board/task system
  • Plan for project templates and quick-start guides
  • Think about project dependencies and relationships
  • Consider project budget tracking (future enhancement)
  • Plan for project reporting and export functionality
  • Consider project roadmap visualization
  • Think about project duplication/cloning
