Introduction#
In this tutorial, we create a value stream and customize it by integrating work items from the frequently-used tools Jira and Git into it.
The value stream that you create in this tutorial introduces you to some of the most-used product features. The tutorial value stream integrates the popular tools Jira and Git, and demonstrates how to incorporate data from those products into your value stream.
