burndown

Burndown is a Drupal-9 native, agile project management tool. It provides support for both kanban and sprint-based projects and several forms of task-size estimation. It is designed for flexibility and extensibility, but it has sensible defaults in place: just turn it on, navigate to the Burndown dashboard from your menu, and start adding projects!

Sponsored and maintained by Lichtman Consulting. We are looking for additional sponsors to add new functionality to this module.

Core Features

* Drag and drop interface
* Kanban and Sprint-base projects
* Estimate based on T-shirt, geometric, or dot sizing
* Customizable swimlanes per project
* Projects and tasks support entity bundles, so you can easily extend them
* Backlog, main (swimlane) and completed boards per project
* Relationships between tasks (blocked by, etc)
* Task work log and commenting
* Attach links and images to tasks
* "Cloud" project sidebar block, to easily find projects
* Simple sidebar navigation block to navigate within a project
* Email notifications on changes (optionally, you may want to use SMTP if the volume of emails will be large).
* Relationships between tasks
* Large library of Drush commands

Requirements

Burndown is designed to leverage the new built-in functionality of Drupal 9.1 or higher. It has no additional external requirements.

Installation Steps

* composer require drupal/burndown
* Enable the Burndown module
* Depending on your theme, you may want to add the "Projects" and "Burndown Sidebar" blocks to a sidebar region. These are added by default in the Bartik theme. They are both optional, but make navigation a bit easier.
* Go to the Burndown dashboard (in your top menu) and start adding projects and tasks.

Upcoming

There are a large number of additional features that could be implemented, depending on funding, including Github integration, project teams and more sophisticated per-project permissions.
