Development backlog management

Development backlog management involves organizing tasks and ongoing work items, often within a personal wiki or note-taking system, to track progress and maintain focus on specific technical domains.^[001-todo-01-todo.md]

Structure

A common approach to backlog management involves using structured metadata and hierarchical lists. Notes typically include front matter attributes such as tags, aliases, and created_date to facilitate tracking and retrieval^[001-todo-01-todo.md]. Content is often organized into sections, such as "Processing" (處理中), which serves as a holding area for active tasks before they are transitioned to external project management tools like GitHub Projects^[001-todo-01-todo.md].

Application

This method is particularly useful for managing research and learning goals. For example, developers may maintain a backlog of topics to study, such as specific frameworks or programming languages^[001-todo-01-todo.md]. Individual items can be linked to dedicated resource notes or external materials, allowing for a granular breakdown of complex subjects like Spring or SpringBoot^[001-todo-01-todo.md].
