This is extremely high level, for each Epic there are multiple features and under each feature there are many stories and tasks
Items that are more than 50% complete are marked with 🚧 while items that are less than 50% complete are marked as ❌, all items marked with ✅ are complete, tested, and integrated into the node runtime

In order to start a node, run cargo run
Running cargo run -- -help will display available cli flags for node configuration and management.
The above builds and runs a Versatus node in debug mode to run in optimized
release mode you must first build the release target using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/versatus/versatus
cd /path/to/cloned/repo
cargo build --release
This will produce a target file (and directory if this is your first time
running cargo run or cargo build in this repo.
Then, to display the available CLI flags, you can run:
cd target/release
./versatus -help
