Resources for Atlassian beginners

[Daniel del Pozo Sánchez]

I'm new to the Atlassian ecosystem and currently going through onboarding. Besides the official learning paths, are there any resources (blogs, YouTube channels, books, etc.) that you found particularly helpful when getting started?

Hi @Daniel del Pozo Sánchez ,

I can just agree with Viswanathan - Atlassian Learning is extremely helpful for getting onboarded with existing or new tools/apps. 📚

Apart from that, the Forum is also a good place to find information, though it can be a bit overwhelming at times. 

💡 Here are some additional things that can be insightful:

• Atlassian Blog (Work Life) - you can find some really cool topics; not so much about the tools but about how you can practice specific things while actually using Atlassian apps
• Atlassian Answered series - this is actually a part of Learning content, but it's a great way to quickly get started and get an overview for specific things and apps
• Atlassian Customer Stories - if you'd like to get a glimpse of how one of the biggest companies uses Atlassian, this might be a stop shop; it isn't a deep technical dive, but it's an insightful read

There are also a lot of Atlassian Champions and Creators who do have their own blogs, books, etc. that can contain some really cool info. 

Hope this helps.

Cheers and happy learning,
Tobi

hi @Daniel del Pozo Sánchez 

Welcome to the Atlassian world and the Community! 🎉 You’re in the right place, and it’s never too late to learn.

The official learning paths are an excellent place to start: https://community.atlassian.com/learning

I’d also recommend joining Community discussions, following the product release notes, and, if you can, getting hands-on with a free sandbox. Nothing accelerates learning like building and breaking things yourself.

Happy learning, and don’t hesitate to ask questions, the Community is always happy to help!
