Leonid IvankinSenior Android developer, MTS Group Reconfiguring all these services and retraining employees is a very difficult and long process, even if there are migration tools from GitHub. Jira, YouTrack and Trello solve similar tasks - such as collecting and storing ideas, enabling collaboration and status tracking plus the ability to share boards or individual tasks, said Leonid Ivankin, an Android developer at MTS group, a mobile telesystems company. These features aren't unique to Projects, and GitHub could face difficulty enticing outside developers onto the tool. In addition to centralizing project planning, Projects includes organization features such as custom fields, board views and a spreadsheet-like table to enable teams to easily see what work has been completed and which projects are still in process. Jira, released in 2002, has strong market penetration and offers more robust capabilities, which means that Projects doesn't pose an immediate threat to Jira's ubiquity, he said. Mercer said he's already hearing about Project adoption or plans for adoption from development teams but noted that GitHub is entering a competitive market.

GitHub will get significant traction due to the added value that Projects brings to the table, such as saving developers from bouncing between tools, as everything is close to their code and where they work, Mercer said. 'It started with enhancements to GitHub Issues to add project tables, and GitHub has continued to enhance the capabilities to enable prioritization, custom fields, boards, etcetera.' 'GitHub wants to be a seamless platform for development and DevOps professionals,' he said. The general release of Projects implies GitHub's intent to further shift feature development left, building in more early stage development capabilities, said Jim Mercer, research vice president of DevOps and DevSecOps at IDC. While Projects will likely attract GitHub users, developers who are using similar tools outside of the GitHub ecosystem such as Atlassian's Jira or JetBrains' YouTrack will be unlikely to make the switch, according to industry experts. Projects synchronizes team planning on GitHub, with automation handling mundane tasks such as issue updates. Projects, released in beta last year and made generally available last week, adds an additional layer of functionality to GitHub Issues, a tool that helps developers track bugs, feedback, ideas and tasks in the code repository.
