Note within the software development industry, everyone uses Jira to
run their Scrum sprints. If you get into using Scrum, especially for
complex projects, big teams, multiple projects, then learning more
versatile tools like Jira is probably worth the learning curve involved.
Note, Jira is not free but NOAA has a license. Contact your IT to get on
that. Or try out Jira for free with up
to 10 team members. Note you can connect Jira and GitHub.
