How do you manage your plans for a project?
I'm starting a project very soon and I was thinking of going through agile process to manage my plans and schedule for my project efficiently. I want to hear how you guys manage your plans for projects!

Taskade (https://taskade.com) and GitHub
When working on my own, I use Google Keep to maintain a simple checklist of things I need to get done. I tend to work in bursts in such scenarios, so I haven't found agile to work well. It can be limiting or demotivating to follow sprints (due to frequent overshooting and undershooting)
In larger teams, I usually go for trello or asana. In the name of agile, I would break tasks down to their smallest manageable size possible. Instead of "build landing page", would be "style header component", "smooth scroll functionality" etc.
Those tasks would be split into multiple columns: To Do, In Progress, Dev Review (if you have another dev to look at your code in a pull request), QA (have someone, specifically a non-coder mess around with the specific feature to try break it) and Done.
Also a good idea to keep a list of backlog tasks that aren't in your current work week. Also another good idea to have a bucket of ideas that can fill your backlog once you've validated them.
Only Todoist for now.
A combination of Trello, Airtable, & GitHub or GitLab
I also find myself almost always using the Custom Fields power-up with Trello so that I can add effort estimates to cards—you can add them to the front of the card for better visibility when scanning to board 👍
I use one trello board per project with the following lists :
the exact number/namea of the lists don't matter. as long as you make sure you create cards and move them between lists as the work is being done
I've used trello board for a project before and I ended up just using native mac Notes app instead. Did managing tasks on a trello board really help your business?
Well it does require some discipline, and the benefits are more obvious when you have multiple people on the team. But it does give you some neat features such as history on what was done when, access from multiple devices, autosaving ... I would never use notes personally
