Our Slack chat is a great place to learn, discuss, and collaborate with other members. The chat lets our development team and participants communicate easily.
Communication is key in every collaborative project, and Planet Learning is no different. Slack provides tight integration with Github and provides full rich text support through Markdown an important tool for clean and efficient communication. Combining these features allows members to mention other members in a message, format text, share images and code, and directly link to GitHub issues and repositories.
As you complete the First Steps, we want you to keep us updated in the Slack chat. Generally, you should comment in the chat when you make an issue or pull request, and then link to it. Make a mention (@name) of someone when you comment on their issue/pull request, then link to it.
If you are new and have not joined our Slack Channel then use this link to join our channel.
This good etiquette helps streamline communication between planetlearning candidates and staff members alike! Feel free to look through the chat for more examples.
You may want to include clarifying images with your messages. To add an image in the chat, either drag and drop or copy and paste it into the messaging area.
