Blazing fast project management app built for developers.

Project Management

What I like about it

I've tried Linear on a recent project and found it probably the fastest project management tool I've ever used. The devs working with me had very easy life thanks to the native integration with Github, which allowed them to set tasks to a specific status (e.g. "In Review") automatically when their PR was merged. It also makes setting up sprints fairly easy with their Cycles functionality.

What I don't like about it

Due dates are important, but Linear doesn't yet feature a Calendar view. Dates themselves are not too prominent even in the app. I get that the focus on the tool is probably on agile project management, but if they want to attract product managers too, it'd be a great addition.

Linear is an alternative to
