FAQPage Schema

How do I manage complex projects with a shared issue map?▼

Issue tracking with Wayfinder works by creating a parent map on your issue tracker and generating child tickets for individual decisions. You resolve these issues sequentially, using ticket blocking to manage dependencies until the project is complete.

How do I track project resolution using ticket management?▼

You can track project resolution by creating child tickets on the map for each decision or investigation. These tickets are then resolved sequentially, with ticket blocking ensuring dependencies are cleared before moving forward.

Do I need an issue tracker with native blocking capabilities to use this?▼

You need an issue tracker with native blocking capabilities for full functionality, but a fallback local-markdown tracker is supported. This ensures you can still manage project navigation and ticket dependencies even without advanced tracker features.

What is the best way to navigate multiple project decisions?▼

The best way to navigate multiple decisions is by generating a shared issue map that represents your project's progress. This allows you to create and manage tickets for each decision, resolving them individually to clear the path to your destination.

Can I use local markdown files for issue tracking if my tracker lacks blocking features?▼

Yes, you can use a local-markdown tracker as a fallback if your primary issue tracker lacks native blocking capabilities. This allows you to maintain project navigation and ticket blocking functionality without changing your core tracker.
