Fabric for other issues
Create better issues, faster
When you're creating an issue, you're making a lot of decisions.
What labels should I add? What repository should this be in? What details should I include? Where should I post it so the right people know about it? What project should I put this in?
When you're building a product, doing data entry like this can drain your creativity.
You and your team will create higher-quality issues, with more predictability, that get addressed faster, and don't drain your energy.
How do I get started?
We're all about reducing the number of decisions you have to make when it comes to issue tracking.
We even decided which templates you should start with. One for bugs. One for incidents. One for feature improvements and requests, which are easier to track separately. And one for technical debt.
Follow the guide below to get set up.
