How do you track requirements, user stories, features etc.

How do you track the features your going to build?

How many people are on your team?

Is it worth it if your a solo developer?

    I use makerkit.co by @sanj.
    It's great even if you're a solo developer because you can involve your users in the feedback / feature suggestion process.

    Here is what it looks like: roadmap.jobboardfire.com

    Github projects/issues and Gitlab boards/issues.

    Solo developer. I'm keeping things simple with a public Trello board. You can add the "Vote" power up thing and share the board with your users so they can vote for the features they like.

    I use WordPress on my website, so it's an easy job with a question & answer plugin. You can add different categories for questions like issues, requests, etc.

    I'm a solo developer and I keep it simple to the extreme: I have a WIP.txt file that I keep two running prioritized lists of features and bugs and that's what I work out of. It gives me a place to log ideas that I come across but can't get to the work right away, and also keep track of what I'm currently working on. I keep it checked into source control so that I can update it anywhere, it works well for me.

    I tag convos in Intercom with the feature request.. then filter them when needing to see overall quantities. Also i sync Intercom with Hubspot CRM ( free ) + use Trello for Roadmapping and referenceing those convos.

    Creating a plan for what you're doing, is always beneficial. No matter if you're solo or not. I'm a fan of keeping "tools" as simple as possible and for side-projects / ideas, I've been using todoist.com. I've used it since forever it seems. I can duly recommend it.

    I've found that the ability to set dates and priority on items, as well as being able to group them under projects, is more than sufficient for 99% of my planning needs.

    EDIT: Just realised they actually have referrals (2 months free Premium): https://todoist.com/r/rene_hansen_fmexhl

    I use BitBucket Issues. I track all issues, bugs, features, ideas, and feedback. I am solo developer thus it is good enough for me.

    I use Asana. I’m trying to get the hang of notion.io but I think it’s too much for what I need right now.

    Definitely worth it IMO. Gives a bit of structure when you get overwhelmed.

      I believe you meant notion.so

        Yes, I’m always getting the address wrong.
