Version 4.1 enables the Project Manager by default, a new alternative to the Job Composer that brings the
366+
automatic scheduler interaction of batch connect forms to your personal job scripts. In addition to this core
367+
functionality, it also provides support for workflows that can submit multiple dependent jobs at once, and
368+
easy collaboration on projects among teams. The core functionality will work without modification, but
369+
collaborative projects work best when used with :ref:`properly configured shared direcories <project_manager_shared_project_root>`.

For more details on customization and configuration, see the :ref:`Project Manager docs <project_manager>`,
371+
and for an example driven guide intended for users, see :ref:`project-manager-tutorial`.
