Before you start creating issue tickets that define the work your team needs to complete for a project, you need to create a project board.

1. Go to the team’s Github repository page.
2. Click on the Projects tab at the top.
3. At the top of this view, you will see a green Link a project button, click on the down arrow on the right of it.
4. Choose New project then click on the green button.
5. Choose Board from the types on the window that appears.
6. Enter in {project name} {your team name} in the Project name input field at the top. For example, if you are working on the Cider Falls project, and you come up with a team name of Titans, you’ll enter Cider Falls Titans.
7. Click green Create project at the bottom.
8. You will be given a board with three columns - To Do, In Progress, and Done. Click the + sign next to Done and create a new column named Backlog and then click and drag it to be the first column on the left.
9. Watch the Setting Up Ticket Weights in Github Project Boards and follow the instructions.
