Using Jira agile project templates for agile

As we have already seen when creating our sample project, Jira comes with a number of project templates, such as Scrum and Kanban. Project templates let you create new projects based on predefined settings so that when the project is created, it will have all the necessary configurations set for you, including:

  • Issue type scheme: An issue type scheme that contains only the relevant issue types for the selected template, such as stories and epics for Scrum.
  • Workflow: A specially designed workflow, making it easier to work with yours issues on the agile board.
  • Screens: A set of screens that contain the necessary fields for working with agile, such as epic links to link stories to epics, and sprint for when tasks are added to Scrum sprints.
  • Agile board: An agile board that is dedicated to the new project, if the template is either Scrum or Kanban.

As we will see in later chapters, you can create agile boards for any existing projects, even if they are not created as Scrum or Kanban templates. These project templates are simply tools to help you get started quickly.
