'GitLab: Board with Milestones as lists?
I'm currently using GitLab Enterprise in a team project. I now want to build out a board-based roadmap similar to Pivotal Tracker, Aha or Trello. (For this view, each month would be a "list" or Aha "milestone". We could then drag roadmap items from one month to another and the whole team can see where we are and our Issue priorities visually.)
I'm hoping we can only use GitLab for this and not need to integrate yet another tool. In the "Boards" section of GitLab, I see I can make lists from GitLab Labels. This is OK, but I'd really like to make lists from GitLab Milestones. (Otherwise, I'd need to make another Milestone just to capture everything in the label.)
Am I missing something? Or is that really the best way to approach this with GitLab?
Solution 1:[1]
There is a roadmap feature for GitLab (premium/ultimate only)
It has evolved with GitLab 14.8 (February 2022)
Additional display options for roadmaps
In this release, we have introduced additional progress tracking capabilities to roadmaps. You can now view the percentage of completed epics based on issue count instead of issue weight. This functionality is useful for organizations that are using Kanban or other methodologies that don’t require their teams to set a weight on issues.
You can now also customize the level of milestones to include in your roadmap, allowing you to tailor your view to meet the needs of your audience.
See Documentation and Issue.
Solution 2:[2]
If you use gitlab.com, https://gitboard.co/ has the milestone or epic board which could help your case. The auto sprint could create and close the regular scheduled milestone/sprint or whatever you call it.
