Body

I'm using a table-view prioritized backlog grouped by milestone. It's been super handy for creating a punchlist with a cut-line, and working down the list until we're ready to, for instance, release from alpha to beta.

Anyway, at some point it's time to create the next milestone, and I can't find a good way to do that from within the projects view. For that I have to go to the repository and click through issues > milestones to get to https://github.com/[org]/[repo]/milestones .

Is there a more streamlined way to do this?

Totally feel u on this, managing milestones through the Projects table view is super handy, but yeah, jumping over to the repo just to create a new milestone can break the flow.

As far as I knw, there’s currently no direct way to create milestones from within the Projects view itself. It still relies on the repo-level milestones being created first.

That said, this sounds like a great feature request. Would be awesome if GitHub let us create or link new milestones directly while in project view, especially during sprint planning.

Maybe worth submitting this as a feature idea via GitHub Feedback too, u're definitely not the only one who'd benefit from it.
