The problem it solves

You don't get GitHub notifications pushed to your phone unless someone mentions you directly, so open pull requests and issues quietly stack up. You end up finding out about important updates hours or days late, after you've already opened your laptop.

Who it fits

Small software teams or solo developers who rely on GitHub for code collaboration.

How it works

  1. Checks GitHub for notifications on a schedule
  2. Filters down to new items only
  3. Formats each one into a readable message
  4. Posts it to your Discord channel
What you get

GitHub updates already waiting in Discord

You get every GitHub update delivered straight into your team's Discord channel, so nothing from your codebase slips past anyone's attention.

What you get

A Discord message for each new GitHub notification.

What you need

A GitHub account and a Discord server.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.
