A personal note from Sander Janssen, the creator of this template:
"As a freelance web developer, managing multiple projects, bugs, and features is a challenge. I used to get vague bug reports in my Mail, Slack or WhatsApp all the time. I found myself constantly asking for more details. Now, when a client reports a bug or asks for a feature, they fill out the Notion template. I get all the info I need in one go, saving time and reducing endless email exchanges. I'm sharing this template with you in hopes it'll make your life easier too."
