Thanks for the advice @mateuszjarzyna ! Just added some gifs of Bugout in action.

The gifs show how to setup integrations but an example could help me understand what this product does.

For example a lot of people have a minimal documentation if any and plenty of discussions at github issues. Sometimes the answer is in the description of the issue, in the last comment or somewhere in the middle or in the...5th duplicate issue :)

Good suggestion @nickmaris . We are working on examples of the knowledge Bugout pulls on GitHub. Will follow up when they are ready.

You know, you have a good point about where you can find answers in GitHub issues. We did a small experiment last year that showed that emoji use is a good indicator of how useful a comment is on GitHub issues.

Based on this experiment, I stood up a little application that lets you summarize public GitHub issues from emoji reactions: thumbsup.bugout.dev/index.html :)

@nickmaris :

Took your suggestion and started creating content showing what Bugout does and how it helps in day-to-day development:
dev.to/zomglings/using-bugout-dev-...

Thank you again for your feedback, I really appreciate it. :)
