Package Exports

    This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (backlog.md) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

    Readme

    Backlog.md

    ✏️ Markdown‑native Task Manager & Kanban visualizer for any Git repository

    Backlog.md turns any folder with a Git repo into a self‑contained project board
    powered by plain Markdown files and a zero‑config CLI.

    • 100 % offline‑friendly – your backlog lives inside your repository
    • Works on macOS, Linux and Windows (Node ≥ 18 / Bun ≥ 1.0)
    • Completely free & open‑source (MIT)

    Quick install

    # global – Node
npm i -g backlog.md

# global – Bun
bun add -g backlog.md    # Bun 1.0+

    Prefer per‑project installs? npm i -D backlog.md → npx backlog …

    Five‑minute tour

    # 1. Bootstrap a repo + backlog
backlog init hello-world

# 2. Capture work
backlog task create "Render markdown as kanban"

# 3. See where you stand
backlog board view

    All data is saved under .backlog folder as human‑readable Markdown (task‑12 - Fix typo.md).

    CLI reference (essentials)

    Action Example
