To-do lists. Time tracking. Automation. Scripting. Making your cup of coffee in the morning. These are just a few of the hundreds of add-ons available for teams using Jira on the Atlassian marketplace (okay, maybe not the coffee one yet. Get on it, AI). With such a vast array of tools at their disposal, development teams can customize their Jira experience to fit their unique needs, enhancing productivity and efficiency.

Remote work clearly has many advantages, but it can also leave developers feeling isolated. Asynchronous communication introduces massive bottlenecks for efficient feedback and creative brainstorming, particularly during code reviews.
