We're a distributed, remote team that rely on asynchronous communication and are as open as we can. We prefer issues or public chat channels over direct messages or meetings.
Paper is a document editor in the cloud that allow us to collaboratively author and discuss fast-changing documents. We use Paper for frequently adapted / customized documents or documents that won't be relevant in the future.
- If you're using a Paper document as an important reference, think on moving it to Github. This gives more granular control over edits via pull requests.
- Flag outdated or deprecated documents in the title using appending
[DEPRECATED]
- You can tag documents using
#hashtags
inside Paper. You can then get Papers containing specific#hashtags
using the search bar.
We use Discourse for high-level announcements, data questions or cross team collaborations.
- We have a Data section.
GitHub allows us to collaborate and work asynchronously.
- Besides technical discussion, we use issues as a way to ask questions and keep the conversations focused.
