#Tasks to do

##Release: MVP

• visiting a project page (from chart) should query for all milestones and issues sans what we've got

###GitHub

• sort milestones on index and project page based on priority (most delayed first)

###Notifications

• create a 500/400/loading system messages
• mediator !app/notify/edit will edit the current notification
• need to show status (receiving information etc.) per repo with little warning triangle when we get 400/500 on milestones
• handle multiple notifications, for example success on closed milestone and then show a different chart or add a project

###Error Handling

• second visit to a different milestone comes out blank
• verify that project exists on project page when fetching it remotely (add behind the scenes)
• deal with Firebase timing out, are we still logged-in?
• visiting a chart page saves the project if it isn't saved already
• check that we have not run out of requests to make
• can we get more than 1 notification at a time?
• save in memory only if no localStorage, warn about that
• what if milestone does not match our strategy?
• show a stack of errors from index page as notifications

###Gotchas

• an issue may have been closed before the start of the milestone; choose the earliest as the start date

###Bugs

• rails/rails/24 has issues in two clusters as if merged from two milestones

###Docs

• landing page for the project and put message on github-burndown-chart repo
• provide a documentation site (because we ref it from hero)

###Routing

• Handle 404 on routes; from catch all check if '/' or go 404 controller
• allow pushState when Firebase hosted

###Style

• focus on form fields style
• switch off user-select on buttons
• make async pages transition so that there is no "jumping" on the page
• index page alert tooltip
• app icon like http://thenounproject.com/term/fire/50966/
• make it easy to go back to project page from a chart page, show it in the header

###Misc

• calculate by how many % are we late/on time so we can sort the milestones in projects
• vendor module so we can proxy require all window libs
• implement search box that quickly takes you to a chart (and may hide "pro actions")
• show hero box or projects with a fade in and only when known
• calculate left margin based on the total number of points text width
• show a countdown clock towards the end of the milestone or show overdue
• trigger success topbar when we have completed a milestone on chart page; show plain when we are behind
• on chart page show a little progress bar in the title
• use tap plugin for Ractive
• the app bundle (albeit uncompressed) clocks in at 1.5MB, reduce the size (d3 is huge (use grunt-smash, docs here), localForage not nedded)
• make tests work again
• use minified builds in production
• move project to Assembly
• make the names consistent, reuse code, template etc.

##Future Releases

• make an extensible architecture; for example I might want to enable another trendline in the chart which shows estimated end date if one keeps up the pace of last 5 days.
• desktop app via node-gyp
• when watching, only build changed files and then concat them to make builds much faster
• smooth animation when transitioning between icons and notifications
• show animated lines when drawing the chart
• highlight changes from past fetch
• 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.
• Check location.hash is supported
• Have an app wide of triggering a URL and have named routes too
• On page load get all the latest data regardless of time_ago
• rotate between percentage progress and points left
• be able to config options through UI that currently have to be hardcoded in config
• cache repos in localStorage for those that do not use GitHub login
• choose your own theme
• custom milestone start dates
• show burndown chart for all milestones
• handle Enterprise editions of GH (signed up in gh dev program)
• auto-update the chart (with delay when no activity) when logged-in
• 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); for example a text like this: starts: 09-10-2014 in the description which we provide regex for
• 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
• allow people to submit suggestions via GitHub Issues
• find a way where, as a group, we can share repo data by trusting the other repo members that use our platform
• support Jira & Gitlab
• when fetching subsequent updates, fetch only the last page of issues since some repos are large (2.5MB & 19 pages for mbostock/d3); actually that is for all issues, not milestone constrained. So only an issue if we want to see a burnchart for all the issues for a repo
• move tests from radekstepan/github-burndown-chart
• if all issue circles are close to each other, make a "master circle" that amalgamates all the issues into one large circle, makes for a prettier view
• tell people if they have no due date
• make better x-axis date display, otherwise we see all 1s.
• some fun loading messages from Sim City.
• show number of tasks, points, days left just like in Assembly
