@Monique vdB Good topic for this month and assuming you are referring to marketplace app, my choice this month is Automated Release Notes for Jira (ARN) and Comala Workflow (Here is an article about ARN)

[Tanya C]

There are some good comment on the Share your app love story on this thread to earn the badge already.  Go check them out!

Thanks @Monique vdB for putting the page together.

Cool

@Tanya Cyes, I'm loving the stories!

This will be a most unhappy month for me on Community.... ^sniff^
Here's why:
Jira is my Romeo. Confluence, Juliet. But MarketPlace is the dagger in this tragic LOVE story

@Fabian A. Lopez (Community Leader - Argentina, Florida, California): Always enjoy reading your highly knowledgeable and informative articles! Can't wait.
Before the month is out, would be so kind to do a "Why you life sucks without Apps!" so I can use it as support to get our org onto them! 😇🙏

Here is my app (aka Power-Ups) love story for February Badge theme:

(Posted in the wrong thread but I'll leave it here anyway.)

What a Girl Wants is to be able to communicate with customers easily. Rumor Has It that we are expected to treat 'App/s' as a distinct word that is not an abbreviation of 'Applications'. Something's Gotta Give!

I try to Play the Game but The Ugly Truth is this terminology change away from 'Add-on/s' makes Life as We Know It harder.

I know When in Rome, and I should Just Go with It. But The Switch of words, well, It's Complicated. 

Ah well, let's see What Happens in Vegas when I can talk to some of the Atlassian team in person.

Shared the story of my first love 💙 -> Spoiler Alert: It's Quizzes for Confluence (ups it's now Courses and Quizzes - LMS for Confluence)

@Andy - PTC Redundant i just published an article trying to help with your apps journey. I hope it helps a little bit with your challenge. The title is "The purpose of the Atlassian Marketplace"

I still don't have this badge :'( 

Have any other challenges been given yet? I don't think my contribution for the first challenge thread counted as it is not a happy love story.

[Monique vdB]

@Kat Warner it did! Love the rom-com references :)

[Dzmitry Hryb _Deviniti_]

Great topic for the month!

I'm not sure if my story counts for this, as it's not directly about apps and not only about love. Anyway, we all know that love and hate are often two sides of the same coin, especially when it comes to someone or something we interact with every day. So I went through seven most common reasons why use of Jira can be frustrating, tried to understand where this frustration comes from, and thought of possible ways to turn it around into an everlasting love relationship which include leveraging apps as well.

Here it is in two parts: part 1, part 2.

Enjoy :)

@Monique vdB - for this challenge, it looks like we need all three of the below, correct?

• Share your app love story on this thread to earn the badge
• #Add yourself to the #HugOps map here
• Like on at least 10 things this month

I believe I've completed all of the above and more, could you confirm for me?  I thought I had accomplished another month's challenge previously but after the deadline I realized I missed something, so want to ensure that doesn't happen again :)
