Jira tips for neuro-divergent peeps?

[Sharlynn Hill]

I think this is the same tips as for everyone: Configure your Jira to be focused and without clutter.

I have worked with several people with different aspects of the autism spectrum, and they have had no problems once things have been set up properly. My experience is that the rituals and processes are more of a hindrance than the tool.
