Description

PLEASE NOTE: This course has now been superseded by my other course "Jira Cloud App Development with Atlassian Forge". Due to a lack of investment in the Atlassian Connect Express (ACE) framework, it is no longer possible for me to continue supporting my students with the technology. Note that Connect as a plugin framework is still relevant today and the concepts described are still applicable but the practical examples demonstrated in this course may no longer work for you. Your are still welcome to take this course but please be advised that I am no longer able to provide support with getting the practical examples to work.
