I've been the core dev on an 18 person team, I wrote 80% of the jira tickets and did about 35% of the code. 6 month of coding project to first launch. I used jira to remember. I wrote tickets for missing features, kludge's and bugs to be fixed, etc. I yelled at the managers to prioritize and estimate faster so I would know how on track we were or if we needed major strategy pivots.

Yes I'm an assembly line robot and the plant foreman. Jira and delegation helped me pull off both



Totally. I actually don't know how people that work in big enough organizations can possibly not like Jira (or a tool like it).

I would go crazy with the amount of things I would have to remember, their status, how to prioritize, how something was previously done and when, etc.


You'd probably end up recreating a rudimentary version of it in a spreadsheet
