FAQPage Schema
How do I create a standardized epic Kanban structure for product planning?

To create an epic Kanban structure, you need a standardized template generating an Epic INDEX.md with milestone sections and 00-todo, 01-doing, and 02-done folders. This enforces a clear Definition of Done and tracks progress from user stories through tasks.

What is the best way to scaffold epic structures and task boards from a product roadmap?

Scaffolding epic structures from a product roadmap involves applying a reusable template to generate milestone sections and lightweight task tables. This connects your user stories directly to a Kanban board for structured progress tracking.

Can I use a predefined template for epic planning and large feature initiatives?

Yes, using a predefined epic planning template allows you to rapidly scaffold large feature initiatives. It provides configurable fields for task tables and enforces a consistent structure for milestones and Definition of Done across new epics.

How do I organize user stories into milestones and Kanban folders?

Organizing user stories into milestones requires mapping them into task tables within an Epic INDEX.md. You then categorize these tasks into 00-todo, 01-doing, and 02-done Kanban folders to visualize and track epic progress.

Does epic planning work without dedicated project management software?

Yes, epic planning works without dedicated project management software by using a lightweight file-based system. It auto-creates an INDEX.md and Kanban folders to manage tasks and milestones directly within your existing workspace.

What are the limitations of using a file-based epic template for project management?

A file-based epic template focuses on structuring tasks and milestones locally without built-in automated notifications or real-time collaboration features. It relies on manual updates to the Kanban folders and task tables for progress tracking.
