GitHub Issues & Project Management
Track bugs, feature requests, and tasks using GitHub Issues.
Step 1 of 520%
GitHub Issues are a lightweight project management tool built into every repository. Use them to track bugs, feature requests, tasks, and discussions.
Issues are the backbone of GitHub collaboration. Each issue is a thread with a title, description, comments, and rich markdown support. You can assign issues to team members, categorize them with labels, organize them with milestones, and link them to pull requests. When a PR's message includes 'Closes #42' or 'Fixes #42', the issue auto-closes when the PR merges — creating a seamless workflow from bug report to fix.
