Really like it so far, I prefer it to Waffle which we been using. Only problem is I can't figure out how to edit the content of an issue once I opened the card? Edit: Also trying to figure out how the Review state work compared to Waffle.

Thanks for trying it out! To edit a card, click the card on the board to open the card. Then you can click the title to edit it. Milestones and labels can be changed from the sidebar by clicking the gear or heading. At the moment you can't edit the initial comment with the card but we should have that fixed soon.

I'm not sure what you mean by your second question. On Zube, the In Review doesn't have a concrete meaning, that is, it doesn't affect the card's state beyond who the issue is assigned to. At Zube, we use the Review column for cards that we have completed but still need to test, have code reviewed or just want to keep an eye for unknown bugs.

Just got this email: Hi sep332! I made a new product, Zube https://zube.io . It's a simple project management tool for GitHub issues. I've been working on it with my cofounder for 6 months. I'm super excited to announce that we're launching Zube today on Hacker News. You can read more about why we made it here - https://zube.io/blog . Hope you check it out and let me know what you think! Cheers, Jen You know this kin…

How is it illegal?

Looks great! Would love understand how it compares to ZenHub.io.

And waffle.io :)

Waffle.io is good product and Zube is similar. We're both web apps that sync with GitHub issues. As far as functionality, Zube gives you some things that Waffle does not:

Comments - syntax highlighting; @mentions, emojis, issue reference autocomplete; live updating from GitHub comments for things like comment updates and deletes (so your data is consistent)

Cards - Commit references, events, and card references. Consistency of data, especially when multiple users are moving cards at the same time.

Boards - add and remove users from the board

Labels - create, update, and delete labels from a repo (not just a card)

Milestones - create, update, and delete labels from a repo (not just a card)

Zube also has many UX features that differ from Waffle like each user having their own row. Creating cards in any row/column. Dedicated views for each milestone.

Waffle has some features that Zube doesn't support right now like burndown charts and search. I'm not an expert on Waffle or anything so please correct me if I'm in error. It's kinda hard to know everything that a competitor does.

Any chance you'll support GitLab projects? Some of us have been waiting a while for a competing service to provide this support. [1] https://gitlab.com/ [2] https://github.com/waffleio/waffle.io/issues/926

Yeah, we're a full web app and we love integrations (GitHub is just the first) so GitLab seems very promising. We haven't looked into the specifics yet but we'd love to create integration #2!

Does Zube support having one board that covers multiple GitHub repos?

We've been using Zube at Interviewed and really like it.

We'd been using Github Issues previously but found it hard to prioritize our tickets in a way that was natural for us. The ability to drag and drop reorder our backlog has really helped with that.

Also, the UI works well for quick updates during our morning standup.

At first I thought my email was just scraped from HN. See my other comment too.
