What is a user story?

A user story describes a wish from the user's perspective. The standard format is: As a [role], I want [action], so that [value].

What do you use this generator for?

The generator produces example sentences — handy for practising the format, kicking off a refinement or demonstrating a template. Replace the placeholders with your own context.

Tips for good user stories

  • Describe the why, not the technical solution.
  • Keep a story small enough for a single sprint.
  • Add acceptance criteria so "done" is clear.

Make next sprint better.
