Hi Adam, Thank you for the detailed clarification and for sharing the relevant links — this is very helpful.
I now understand the distinction between the Fineract backend and the Mifos Web-app Jira boards. I will make sure to use the MifosForge Jira for all future UI-related issues. I'll take a look at the beginner-friendly stories you shared.
