This product was not featured by Product Hunt yet. It will not be visible on their landing page and won't be ranked (cannot win product of the day regardless of upvotes).
Ever started reviewing a PR only to find two teammates already on it, or pinged someone who was already reading? Install Pull Presence as a team and see each other on GitHub pull requests, live. Free Chrome extension; public repos today, private soon.
As a software engineer, I'd often open a pull request to review and wonder who else was already looking at it. And on my own PRs, more than once I've pinged someone for a review when they were already reviewing it.
I tried searching for a tool that could do this but couldn't find anything. Few months pass by and I finally decided to just make it for fun and see what comes out of it.
What it does: Once it's installed, any GitHub pull request shows a small pill with who's viewing it right now, and who's gone idle. Setup takes about a minute: install, sign in with GitHub (read-only access), and open a PR.
Where it's at: This is the first version, and it works on public repos.
Why I'm here: Mostly to find out whether other developers actually want this. It's free right now. Running it does cost money, so eventually I'll need to charge for some of it, but I'd rather learn whether it's useful before I worry about pricing.
I'd love to hear:
Would you use this on your team? What would stop you?
How much would private repo support matter to you? If you open a private repo with the extension installed, there's an "I'm interested" button. Clicking it is the best way to tell me.
