Ask HN: Issue Tracking as Code?

2 points

6 years ago

I wonder if issues can be manipulated in a more structured way.

Superficially issues seem similar to imperative functions. And it should be possible to navigate them using an IDE-like UI.

Basically a programming language where the lowest level instruction is Markdown interpreted by a human.

What's the closest thing that exists?
