A common use is keeping track of an upcoming software version. Milestones are created per-project.

You can find the milestones page under your project's **Issues ➔ Milestones**.
## Creating a milestone
To create a new milestone, simply click the **New milestone** button when in the
milestones page. A milestone can have a title, a description and start/due dates.
Once you fill in all the details, hit the **Create milestone** button.
>**Note:**
The start/due dates are required if you intend to use [Burndown charts](#burndown-charts).
