Nadia Makarevich talks about: 

1. History of front-end in Jira
2. How architecture of front-end was in the early stages
3. Evolution in the subsequent years and why
4. Jira’s front-end architecture in the present and why it is so. 

When Jira front-end repository was born less than three years ago, Redux was a standard for front-end state management. Jira even built its own architectural guidelines around it and how to build scalable apps with it. Two and a half years later, Jira and Redux broke up; a new state management solution was integrated, and the entire Jira front-end architecture was turned upside down. What was the problem with Redux? Why did the Atlassian team abandon it? How do the architecture guidelines look today? Nadia Makarevich, senior developer at Atlassian, explains.
