as a beginner developer i am having a really hard time while learning jira plugin development.

[ratiblagen]

i have no prior experience on software almost at all and i need to learn development of jira plugin. i got the basics like what pom do, what atlassian-settings.xml do and how to manipulate those. But when working with java class i can not understand whats going on. i feel like before jira plugin i should have learn java little bit more but right now i feel really stupid for not understanding or real slow understanding. Can you guys give me some insight and advice on what should i do or which path should i take? thank you

It is better for you to start working with JIRA Plugin seed project (Sample Project).

First you need to understand how the components work. Step by step go through JIRA documentation (Documentation).

Way I learned about JIRA Plugin is I started building a small plugin with two or three pages. When you start building building plugin you will get to know how this lifecycle works.

Good Luck :)
