Just posted what I'm working on in the HN what are you working on thread. It's a GitHub + Slack bot to let organizations customize and get notifications on Slack from GitHub. I've tried using the official GitHub Slack integration, but found it limiting and unmaintained by GitHub.

I'm looking for early beta users and feedback, so if this problem resonates with you, let me know or sign up for the coming soon page and I'll reach out.

Just posted what I'm working on in the HN what are you working on thread. It's a GitHub + Slack bot to let organizations customize and get notifications on Slack from GitHub. I've tried using the official GitHub Slack integration, but found it limiting and unmaintained by GitHub.

For example, we want to get notifications sent to a specific channel when there are deploys to the "prod" env. The official integration doesn't let you filter events by env, so it's all or nothing. Your Slack channel for production releases will be filled with staging and qa notifications.

I designed it so users can filter on essentially any field of any event - deployment environment, branch patterns, file paths, PR labels, commit authors, etc.

I've been working on my side project on and off for a while, mostly off. But the biggest thing I did recently to keep my momentum strong is setting up continuous deployment. It helps me focus on what's next to get it end to end ready and seeing the constant improvements is super motivating.

I’m learning about enterprise sales today from the buyers side. We’re in a shut up and take my money state and even then it’ll take at least week to get the contracts signed and access granted on the providers side.

This might sound obvious but if you’re scaling up your server instances and you’re not consuming most of the cpu/memory/disk, something is wrong

I usually forget to blow my nose before going to the coffee shop and get the sniffles. I get self-conscious and go home. Not today. Time for focus work before work.

You are up to date.
