Dev Log 3 - Scheduling my work


The scheduling of tasks has consistently been an essential step in project planning. During the fifth and sixth weeks, our team engaged in a discussion regarding the choice of software for recording our work activities. Ultimately, we opted for Jira, a platform familiar to all team members. Jira serves as a centralized hub for tracking tasks, including those in progress, completed, or planned for the future. This facilitates easy access for all members to review each other's contributions.

In my personal opinion, Jira offers a powerful feature called "Workspace Views," which includes the "Table" and "Calendar" sections. These sections prove highly convenient for synchronizing all task-related information. The "Table" allows team members to effortlessly view everyone's tasks and deadlines, while the "Calendar" provides a more detailed timeline of when tasks are scheduled to be completed.

I believe that judiciously using Jira in conjunction with other collaborative platforms like Google doc can effectively streamline team workflows. This integrated approach will be a focal point for our team in the future, as it enhances our ability to plan and coordinate our collective efforts.

Jira is a powerful software.

I am grateful that we were introduced to the power of this software through Jess last year. It helped our development team at that time to get through the project management difficulties. The fact that our team is using Jira again makes me feel even more confident about our project.

Your choice of Jira for task management in your project is a wise one. Its familiarity among team members and features like "Workspace Views," including the "Table" and "Calendar" sections, are great for tracking and synchronizing tasks. Your idea to combine Jira with platforms like Google Docs is excellent for streamlining workflows and enhancing team coordination. It seems like your team is setting up for efficient and successful project management. Great job!

Hey, Zimu Chen. Jira is really user-friendly for project management, offering customization for your workflow. The only downside is that I receive notifications in my work email, which I hardly ever check!
