SQ's first Jira Quest

Description

This project is a simple "Hello World" Jira app built using Atlassian's Forge platform. The app adds a custom project page inside Jira which displays the user's username, project ID, and current theme. It demonstrates how to use Forge's jira:projectPage module, a frontend resource written in React, and a backend function resolver for dynamic rendering.

What I learnt from using Forge

Working with Forge taught me the following:

• How easy it is to deploy secure, serverless Jira apps without managing any infrastructure
• How permissions and scopes are tightly managed by Atlassian
• How to define and link Forge modules, functions, and resources in the manifest.yml file
• Basic Forge CLI commands such as forge deploy, forge install and forge tunnel

What I am most excited about building with Forge moving forward

I'm most excited about building:

• Workflow automation tools, such as custom approval flows or rule-based status transitions
• Dashboards and analytics panels that integrate Jira project and issue data in a more visual, tailored way
• Integrations with external APIs, such as syncing Jira issues with external project management tools or CRMs
