Using Agile? Using Github? Need a Burn Chart?

I've been writing about how my team is using Github issues, and now milestones, to handle our Agile process. Burn charts have been sort of an issue for us. So I build something to handle it ... USING GH-PAGES.

I’ve been writing about how my team is using Github issues, and now with milestones, to handle our Agile process. Burn charts have been sort of an issue for us. So I built something to handle it using gh-pages.

It’s pretty straightforward. The quick run-down (better documentation, and cleanup, is on the way):

Using an existing repo, create a gh-pages branch (if you already are using it no worries the html will be written to a /burn-chart directory), move the code from the repo into gh-pages. Modify the front matter to fit your sprint cycles and boom, you have your burn chart at http://user.github.io/project/burn-chart.

Again, better documentation and cleanup on the way, but release early, release often.
