lkingsford / scrummd Goto Github PK

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 sprint1 with:

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
