Archive project screenshots by milestone

Archiving project screenshots by milestone is a great way to maintain an organized record of the project’s progress. Here’s a general approach you can follow:

1. Define Milestones

• Major Milestones: For example, project initiation, completion of design phase, development phase, testing phase, and project delivery.

• Minor Milestones: Could include smaller achievements like feature completions, updates, bug fixes, etc.

2. Create Folder Structure

• Organize your screenshots by creating a folder for each milestone.

• Example:

  markdown
  CopyEdit
  ProjectName/
      ├── Milestone_1_Initiation/
      │     └── screenshot_01.png
      │     └── screenshot_02.png
      ├── Milestone_2_DesignPhase/
      │     └── screenshot_03.png
      │     └── screenshot_04.png
      └── Milestone_3_Development/
            └── screenshot_05.png
            └── screenshot_06.png
  

3. Name Screenshots Consistently

• Use a consistent naming convention to make it easy to identify the screenshots later.

• Example: screenshot_01_DesignPhase.png or Milestone_2_FeatureA_Progress.png.

4. Include Descriptions (Optional)

• You can include short descriptions of the screenshot contents or the context of the milestone in a text file or spreadsheet.

5. Automate the Process (Optional)

• If you’re working with large teams or multiple milestones, automation tools like cloud storage with version control or project management tools like Jira can help track and archive screenshots automatically.

6. Regular Backup

• Always back up your screenshots to prevent data loss, especially for significant milestones.
