Implement browser push notifications
Good idea! Will need to research how to do this.
Btw, if while implementing it, can you consider make something available for API developers to be notified too?
I'm not sure graphql is very cool for streaming APIs, but maybe a simple outgoing webhook would be enough
Hey @marc, I plan to automate sending a message on a discord channel with the changelog of #sgtm.
It would be nice if you provide a webhook system or maybe just an RSS for now? this way I can easily configure posting with Zapier :)
Yes, Zapier integration would be very useful for a bunch of things. Definitely want to add this at some point.
RSS would be quicker to implement. But there's a bunch of different ways to implement it. And people might have different preferences depending on the integration they want to build.
I'll give this some thought the coming days. Feel free to ping me in a week to check the status.
Can you also add in this guide or help section the supported format used in the todo body? I tried using Markdown-style links ([title](url)), but can't get something like you
I'm considering switching to a rich text editor for comments. It would also make it easier to add inline images, etc. I'm not 100% sure yet.
The [title](url) you tried should work. Make sure to start the URL with http:// (or https://)
Another example (not from me) -> wip.chat/@gijsheerkens/todos/…
Show mentions on user profile pages
I.e., "made cool stuff with @marc" -> available on your wip.chat/@marc page
It can increase collaboration or bug report (you and @levelsio often use the "cc"/"h/t" mention for fixed bug reports)
What if you could "retweet" someone else's todo?
Then if you do get mentioned, you can choose whether to have it show up on your profile by retweeting or not.
It would also let you amplify todos where you're not directly mentioned. Perhaps because it's something really interesting, but it might be from a less known maker.
If WIP were to become more of a Twitter-like social network where you can follow people (recently launched a prototype of this) then it might make sense to add such a feature.
I agree that hashtags would be better, maybe you can just reserve some keywords that can't be used as project hashtags?
Maybe we can recycle this -> github.com/marckohlbrugge/wip…
Also, what about creating a WIP GitHub org that can be joined by paid members to manages those community-driven resources?
Yes, it can be the solution, and I like the idea to have more work to do when you want to highlight something 👍
I think that:
1. it should be displayed on the timeline (don't know if it's the case today)
2. it should probably "count" as a done task for the author
It currently isn't displayed on the timeline. It totally should though!
Right now it doesn't count as a done todo either. I guess we could make it count for the streak, as writing a status update is indeed work. And having to create a todo "Wrote a product update" just after you wrote it on WIP seems like unnecessary work.
SEO improvements:
👍 I haven't spend much time on SEO, because it doesn't immediately provide value for existing members. But as we want to grow WIP, it does make sense to leverage our content and showing up on more search result pages.
These are some excellent suggestions. I'll add them to my list. Thanks!
