This PR sets up GitHub Issues as a comprehensive task management system to replace Todoist for FRC Team 360, providing better integration with our development workflow and open alliance transparency.

What's New

Issue Templates

  • Bug Report: Structured template for reporting code/hardware issues with environment details, reproduction steps, and priority levels
  • Feature Request: Template for suggesting new robot capabilities with problem statements, implementation details, and success criteria
  • Task/Todo: General task template with acceptance criteria, effort estimation, and skill requirements
  • Build/Hardware: Specialized template for mechanical/electrical work including safety considerations and materials tracking

Task Management Infrastructure

  • Issue template configuration with links to Chief Delphi build thread and FRC documentation
  • Comprehensive labeling system for type, priority, status, and team categorization
  • Complete workflow documentation in TASK_MANAGEMENT.md
  • Quick access links in README for immediate team adoption

Key Benefits Over Todoist

  • Free for unlimited team members
  • Code Integration: Issues automatically link to commits, PRs, and releases
  • Open Alliance: Public visibility supports our open alliance participation
  • Rich Content: Markdown formatting, file attachments, and embedded images
  • Team Collaboration: Built-in mentions, assignments, and threaded discussions

Usage Examples

Creating a new issue is now streamlined with structured templates:

For reporting bugs:

Title: [BUG] Drivetrain not responding to joystick input
- Environment details (robot/simulation)
- Reproduction steps
- Priority assessment

For tracking build tasks:

Title: [BUILD] Wire intake motor controllers
- Materials needed checklist
- Safety considerations
- Testing validation steps

The system includes a complete workflow from issue creation through closure, with automatic integration to our existing development process. Team members can now track everything from code bugs to hardware assembly in one unified system.

Documentation: See TASK_MANAGEMENT.md for the complete guide including workflow, labeling system, and team adoption strategies.

Fixes #36.
