and there is a definite benefit for lowering barriers to contribution (which is important to us) that GitHub has such a dominant position in terms of what everyone has accounts with.īut even ignoring how one might feel about their new corporate owner (MicroSoft), in a lot of ways GitHub is a bad product for open source projects. On the one hand, I do feel that being on GitHub helps people discover Zulip, because we have enough stars (etc.) that we rank highly among projects on the platform. I have mixed feelings on GitHub as a product and our use of it for the Zulip open source project. #WebAndVideoConferencing #videochat See more One of our engineers, Jerome, actually built a cool little Slack integration using the Slack API and Zoom API so that every time a recording is processed, a link gets posted to the "event-recordings" channel. Meeting recordings (video and audio) are really nice, you get recordings stored in the cloud on the higher tier plans. There's a G Suite (Google Calendar) integration which lets you add a Zoom call (w/dial in info + link to web/mobile) with the click of a button. You can schedule recurring calls which is helpful. The Slack integration was awesome (just type /zoom and it starts a call) We noticed the video/sound quality was better, and more importantly it was super reliable. We ended up trying Zoom after I had heard about it from some friends at other companies. We all had high hopes when the acquisition went through but ultimately, the product just didn't live up to expectations. Video and sound quality was often times pretty bad and worst of all the service just wasn't reliable. Using Screenhero via Slack was getting to be pretty horrible. So I am adding User Stories & How To Test in the Markdown of the Description if I could have these as custom fields then my #Agile workflow would be complete. Right now we just have a Description field. In saying that what I would love Trello to implement is to allow me to create custom fields. But for smaller #Startups that want to hit the ground running Trello for me is the way to go. I'm not saying that JIRA is not useful, I can see larger companies being able to use the JIRA features and have the time to go through all the complex setup to get a really good workflow going. With a few TrelloPowerUps we were easily able to add GitHub integration and storyPoints to our cards and thats all we needed to get a really nice agile workflow going. ![]() You are able to hit the ground running with Trello and get tasks started right away without being overwhelmed with the complexity of options in JIRA Like setting up a project, user rules etc. What was so great about this was it didn't come with all the complexity of JIRA. When I started at #StackShare we were using a Trello #Kanban board and I was so shocked at how easy the workflow was to follow, create new tasks and get tasks QA'd and deployed. I would suggest every new workplace that I worked at to switch to JIRA instead of what I was using. ![]() ![]() So I am a huge fan of JIRA like #massive I used it for many many years, and really loved it, used it personally and at work.
