Created vs Resolved for Jira

Created vs Resolved for Jira answers the oldest question in any backlog: are we keeping up? Blue bars for what arrived in each period, green bars for what left, and a red line across them for how many work items were still open at the end of each one. That line is the point. A team can close exactly as many items as arrive and still watch its backlog climb, because the arithmetic that matters happened before the window started, and only the line shows it. The net change per period is drawn on its own underneath, with a four period rolling average, so a single bad fortnight is not mistaken for a trend. Above it sits the trend itself: the slope of the open backlog across the whole window, reported in plain words as growing, flat or shrinking, with the change per period next to it. When there is not enough history to call it, the app says so instead of fitting a line to nothing.
