We've now reached the end of our first chapter. In this chapter, we discussed what JIRA is, what it's used for in today's project management world, and why we should use it with agile. You learned how to create an account with Atlassian so that you can start to use JIRA. We then discussed projects, and how JIRA organizes its work into projects as containers. We covered creating and managing different projects in JIRA, and how to handle their settings. Finally, you learned more about the specifics in the configuration of projects, such as screens, workflows, permissions, and notifications.
In the next chapter, we'll discuss managing all of the work items in more detail, since there are lots of them involved. JIRA will help us to achieve these goals.
