Notes

Keep in mind most the items listed are not used, but the loved ❤️ or most starred ⭐ might be used and recommended. More stars can be added like ⭐⭐⭐ to indicate the importance (0 to 5 stars) or even ❤️ to indicate the utmost priority. The non-starred are just for references, comparison, good alternative, if want to be changed to, waiting for rating, or not evaluated yet.

All of these information also helps the whole team (or even yourself) to choose and change multiple options along the way. Outside of the Stages section, the links are annotated to the name of the item.
