Open model trained to write Atlassian Forge apps

A developer has trained a 27-billion parameter open-weight model, Qwen3.8-27B, to generate Atlassian Forge applications. This fine-tuned model demonstrates significant improvements over its base version, with the ability to produce valid Forge manifests and compileable applications, a feat the base model could not achieve. The developer claims this is the first open-weights model specifically trained for writing Forge apps, with performance metrics and training details publicly available on Hugging Face and GitHub. AI

IMPACT This development could enable more efficient creation of Atlassian ecosystem apps and potentially inspire similar specialized models for other development platforms.

    I taught a 27B model to write Forge apps. As far as I can find, nobody had done that before

    <h3> Key takeaways </h3> <ul> <li>Atlassian Models is Qwen3.8-27B taught Forge, Jira, Confluence and JSM from real apps, the docs, the OpenAPI specs and our own community answers. The 27B's weights are on Hugging Face under Apache-2.0 in five artefacts, and a 9B member joined it …
