This year at their Team conference, Atlassian is offering so-called "Braindates". These are not presentations or any kind of formal sessions, but a more casual way of interacting with people who share the same interests and ask themselves the same questions. Everyone can use a dedicated Braindate lounge on the expo floor…

Do you want your Jira issue information to be displayed in an "impossible" way, but it's just not available in Jira itself or any Marketplace app you've tried? Do you want something that's more than just a normal report, because it needs to do exactly what you want, how you want it? ➡️ What you need is an infinitely…
