Image
  Server‑Side Offline Data File Views introduce a simple but transformative capability to OpenRose: the ability to host exported project data directly on the server and make it instantly accessible to any authorized user. This dramatically improves how teams share information, collaborate, and maintain visibility across projects. Here are the key reasons this feature stands out: Zero‑Complexity Hosting You export a JSON file and place it in a server folder. That’s it.

  A Smarter Way to Organise Requirements: Introducing Flexible Tagging in OpenRose Why This Feature Matters Managing large sets of requirements often becomes messy — especially when teams need to group items by release cycle, business area, priority, location, or any other meaningful category.

That’s exactly why OpenRose introduces Client‑Side JSON Offline Data File Views — a feature designed to make sharing, reviewing, and exploring requirements easier than ever.
