What is Waffle?

Waffle is a work flow application that allows us to define tasks, assign them to people, give them due dates, and move them through the columns automatically by using github.

Using Waffle for the first time

1. Click Add Issue: to create a new card for unique enhancement or bug in Meta-MarIO you'd like to work on or have someone else work on.
2. For Title type what the bug or enhancement is and then click Add. Your card will now be in the Backlog column.
3. Click on github logo in the bottom right of the card. Your card will now be displayed in the issues tab of the repository.
4. Click the pencil icon in the top right of your comment. Write out a description of the problem and then bellow write out the steps you believe you need to take to finish the task, separate the steps by line. Once all the steps are written, highlight them and click the Add a task list icon in the header of the comment.
5. Finish by clicking update comment
6. Because this is your first time contributing, it will stay in the Backlog column of Gitter until a collaborator approves the card and moves it to ready where you can begin working on it.
