Feature Highlight: Set Due Dates for Issues and Create Milestones

GitLab's issue tracker is an integral part of its workflow, allowing teams to manage projects comprehensively, even those without code, by setting due dates for individual issues and creating milestones. Introduced in GitLab 8.7, the ability to assign due dates to issues has enhanced project management by providing teams with clear deadlines, which is particularly useful when multiple teams collaborate on different aspects of a project. Milestones, serving as markers in a project's timeline, can combine various tasks across projects, enabling teams to track progress and ensure all tasks align with overarching project goals. This system is utilized by GitLab's internal teams, such as Development and Marketing, to coordinate timely releases and feature launches, allowing for efficient planning and execution. With these features, teams can improve visibility, manage workloads effectively, and anticipate project completions, while GitLab's roadmap and feedback channels offer insights into future developments.
