Atlassian Community Round-up: January 2022
Hello Everyone!
The first month of 2022 is in the books and that means it’s time for another round up! We are starting off 2022 with another amazing round of awesome content. I’ll be completely honest, my job is getting harder and harder every month. I can only include so many items, and there are so many fantastically written articles. As always, please be sure to check out the articles below, but then go take a look as everything else because it’s worth the read.
Let’s dive in:
