What Else Can You Do with Your Project?

After you create your project, add users, set the privacy level, and define environments, there are several other things you can add, depending on how you will use and manage your project:

• You may want to use issues to track and manage tasks, defects, and features (see Track and Manage Tasks, Defects, and Features) or use Agile boards to manage and update issues and help plan your team's workflow (see Use Agile Boards to Manage and Update Issues).

• You may want to encourage collaboration between team members by using merge requests to review, critique, and approve source code changes (see Review Source Code with Merge Requests), by using wikis to document project information (see Co-Author Wikis), or by using snippets to share reusable pieces of source code (see Share and Use Code Snippets).

• You may want to use the project's Maven repository for managing binary files and dependencies (see Manage Binaries and Dependencies with Maven) or use the project's NPM registry to download and/or publish private Javascript packages using Node.js/NPM command line tools (see Use the Project's NPM Registry).

• You may want to use webhooks to integrate use event notifications with Jenkins, GitHub applications, Slack, and PagerDuty (see Send Notifications to External Software Using Webhooks) or link external Docker registries to your project (see Access External Docker Registries).

Or, you may simply want to continue on your current path and see how to set up Git repositories, if needed (see Manage Source Code Files with Git).
