 ### MVP
 
-- landing page allows you to immediately jump into action
-- past repos are cached remotely or in localStorage
-- show chart for the current milestone or choose a custom one
-- be able to config options through UI that currently have to be hardcoded in config
-- embed user tracking
-- sort projects based on their closest due dates
-- show only repo name if all projects are under our name
-- rotate between percentage progress and points left
-- Send notifications to people like Codeship or have our own delivery system perhaps like Github or just show a notification icon and onclick ask people to upgrade

 ### The 20%
 
-- Do not show login/logged-in state when we are still fetching that information from Firebase
-- Handle 404 on routes; from catch all check if '/' or go 404 controller
-- Variable document.title on different pages
-- In add a project form autocomplete on my username, orgs I am member of and repos I have access to
-- Someone might create a public repo, add it to the system and switch it to private; need to check repo priviledges at runtime; or when asking for auth, one would choose either public OR public/private, but this could get confusign.
-- Make sure the padding fits throughout the interface; we have user-select on elements.
-- Validate repo input and show a loading sign of sorts
-- When fetching repo say if no perms to access or does not exist
-- Check location.hash is supported
-- Have an app wide of triggering a URL and have named routes too
-- Check that we have not run out of requests to make

 ### Extras
 
-- choose your own strategy for naming issues, e.g. all issues are one size
-- choose your own theme
-- custom milestone start dates
-- show burndown chart for all milestones
-- handle Enterprise editions of GH
-- auto-update the chart (with delay when no activity) when logged-in
-- show a countdown clock towards the end of the milestone or show overdue
-- add weekly velocity across all projects and a bar chart to that effect
-- show a little lightning and a number for today's velocity
-- show burnchart only for your tasks; this would be a second category of projects & tasks in the dashboard
-- show an overall text-based status like: all projects on time etc.
-- until GH fix milestone start date then provide an option to specify it (either do that on GH server or locally)
-- work on mobile devices
-- show velocity number for each member of the team in the corner of the layout
-- show velocity for all team members and how it progresses through time
-- points collector - give medals for 1st 3 spots in terms of velocity
-- show past commits or due dates like in [this calendar](https://dribbble.com/shots/1736128-Meetups-Page?list=shots&sort=popular&timeframe=now&offset=5)
