Take a look at a new post from my Co-Founder and CTO of GitBetter:
GitBetter allows us to understand how people and products evolve based on a single source of truth. We do this with Optics. An Optic visualizes data from code repositories. It tells us the composition of a project, or a developer. It can tell us how either change over time. It can tell us about activity, or non-activity. But it does not tell us what the data means. It lets the data do that.
Each Optic can also be accessed by Alexa. When we access GitBetter Optics with Alexa, we call these Acoustics. As we build more, we will build these in parallel. Our mission is to make the data as accessible as possible to help us all make better decisions and understand the truth about our projects, our products and ourselves.
Productivity as measured by time is a lie, and as soon as we begin to describe our work abstractly (like on a task board, Gantt chart or by updating work items in some planning tool), we are lying. The truth lies in where the work happens, and we seek to reflect that truth without bias not only to better understand productivity but to motivate ourselves and our teams to work better.
Please take some time to log in to your repository, add your projects and play with our Optics. Find the Alexa skill GitBetter and talk to it. Let us know what you think. Thank you.
