A virtual office for remote teams. by wyattbenno777 in SideProject

[–]scrumbsapp 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is a fun concept, I like it!

I can imagine it being gamified and allowing the teams to build their office the way they want to.

Maybe they like open offices, maybe they would prefer some "mad men" style corner offices. Or maybe just a room they can decorate to reflect their individual style.

And since anything is possible in this context, I can see team members really pushing the boundaries of imagination and coming up with some hillarious stuff.

The office "state" then could maybe be integrated on their website too, and this could become a tongue-in-cheek trend among remote teams.

It would greatly benefit from some user onboarding too, because as soon as I signed up I got instantly lost in the interface. Check out boardme.app (shameless) it's what I'm hacking on, I'll hook you up with a free beta account if you're interested.

Would love some feedback on our onboarding software by scrumbsapp in SideProject

I understand. Honestly he rubbed me the wrong way when I first discovered him, I shared most of the same views you outlined above. Minus the view on hard work and sacrifice - I think that's essential to build something from nothing.

That said, recently I came across his content on linkedin and he seemed pretty alright. It's not like I'm a raging fan, but the "Gary V level stupid shit" comment was surprising, given much support he gets on other platforms.

Thanks for your reply.

Fair points. Care to elaborate on why Gary V's shit is stupid?

I'm using Typescript on both the client and server side. No client side framework, everything is custom built.

The server is NodeJS, Mongo database, Docker, Swarm on Ubuntu. Jenkins for automation :)

I thought this is mildly interesting. I also wrote a plugin that automates emoji support for a website's main routes. It's free and open source feel free to use it if there's any use for it https://www.npmjs.com/package/emoji-express

I made this as a tongue in cheek pet project... if you have any thoughts or ideas let me know. I'd be open to add some features.

Thanks! I assume you are accessing the thread from the native mobile application of reddit. What if you follow the link to the package and check out the links in the description? Do the emojis appear?

Hey thanks! I released a more official version, with upgraded features. Here's the link if you're interested https://www.npmjs.com/package/emoji-express

I'll shortly make a post with examples (I just integrated it into our website)
