Video Description
In this video, I'll demo how to convert draft issues in your GitHub Projects to "real", actual issues in a Repository. I'll give you my tips for keeping everything organized. I'll wrap up by demoing Issue Types by setting the issue type values on our requirements (PBIs). BTW, this video was made using SlideSpeaker (https://www.slidespeaker.ai))
