Hi, I would say the most important aspect of a successful development team is proper and continuous communication between all team members. Pullpo.io is a company that offers two products that help development teams in multiple ways. The first product is an Insight metrics product that helps development teams find and resolve bottlenecks. Pullpo measures cycle time (work in progress, pickup, code review & merge time), PR throughput, and batch size. This keeps the software company's metric clear and well organized. The other product is ephemeral PR Slack channels that allow for faster code review conversations for developers using GitHub. Unlike the default GitHub integration, Pullpo creates an ephemeral Slack channel for every PR, with all the people involved in it. The code review conversation can now happen in Slack. In these Slack channels, notifications are sent about workflow results, new commits, mergeability, code comments, etc. This way, if you use GitHub as your repository, all team members can be on the same page about all changes. Hope this helps! :)
