Resources to learn project management best practices?

1 pointsby chuieabout 7 years ago
My side project is beginning to attract interest from a few people who would like to hop on board. At this point I am just doing what feels familiar and sensible, but the project manager perspective is new to me. Are there any sort of articles/books/podcasts/etc that could clue me into how to become better at it?

Project Management: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wrdrd.github.io&#x2F;docs&#x2F;consulting&#x2F;software-development#project-management" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;wrdrd.github.io&#x2F;docs&#x2F;consulting&#x2F;software-development...</a> ... #requirements-traceability, #work-breakdown-structure (Mission, Project, Goal&#x2F;Objective #n; Issue #n, - [ ] Task)<p>&quot;Ask HN: How do you, as a developer, set measurable and actionable goals?&quot; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;westurner.github.io&#x2F;hnlog&#x2F;#story-15119635" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;westurner.github.io&#x2F;hnlog&#x2F;#story-15119635</a><p>- Burndown Chart, User Stories<p>... GitHub and GitLab have milestones and reorderable issue boards. I still like <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;waffle.io" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;waffle.io</a> for complexity points; though you can also just create labels for e.g. complexity (Complexity-5) and priority (Priority-5).

Similar question from 2 weeks ago &quot;Ask HN: Best project management practices in 2018?&quot; <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=16377523" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=16377523</a> though on first glance there&#x27;s only one book mentioned.
