Re: Jetbrains Space
#12I tried it out a bit, the integrations feel really lacking. For example, the teams section is cool, but it can't sync with GSuite or Rippling (or anyone, for that matter), so I have to maintain essentially two sources of truth. Same with calendar, Space won't sync with anyone else, but it doesn't have the ability to invite external users or add video conferencing details. Pretty much the only functional integration seems to be with Github.
This feels like a "jack of all trades, master of none" kind of situation. I love the premise, but integrations are going to make or break this for me. Admittedly, that's the hardest part to build.
Re: Jetbrains Space
#13It seems like a daunting task for Space to actually deliver on all it's promises, but Jetbrains has an extremely high amount of credibility with developers. I want to believe in this product, as I want competition against VSCode and Slack.
I can believe that it'll be rough at first, but jetbrains is really good at iteratively improving their products. that said, I'm not incredibly interested in it. Maybe if I were at a company that just got a series A or something, and was starting to hire quickly, and didn't already have an entrenched environment. I'll probably make use of their remote environments at some point -- it solves a lot of cross-platform de…
+1 having to juggle multiple IDEs for a multi language project is clunky.
Re: Jetbrains Space
#14Has anybody actually tried it? Anyone willing to share their experiences? The tools looks extremely promising for smaller teams that just want to get the whole thing going with minimal config

#15It looks beautiful in the video demo, I just wonder whether integrations will let it down. GitHub integrates with any code coverage, code quality, security scanning, or CI solution out there. Slack similarly integrates with any on-call system, time tracking system, code host... Sure Jetbrains Space has provided the API, webhooks and SDK, but most teams want to focus on their application itself? It feels a lot "safer"…
I think the hodgepodge, piecemeal nature of software development tooling is both a strength and a downfall. Something like JetBrains Space appeals to me at this point in my career, because I really just want to write the software and have everything else handled by default. I don't want to be gluing together services just to get work done. It's also appealing to me as a way to align everyone on the same tools. One of…
Yeah, API/Service gluing in general gets old. I hate keeping things that have different dev cycles in sync.

Heh. You know who made their fortune providing "everything else handled by default"? Microsoft.
Now that enters a fairly divisive terrain, but needless to say, what you expect from single source of tooling generally does not end up being delivered.

Its between $8/month and $99/month, and the highest tier includes all Jetbrains products. That looks... reasonable?

It’s $25 or $125 (includes all product pack, requires min 50 users) per usermonth. The OP said on prem.
Re: Jetbrains Space
#19What I really want is a workflow for managing change requests (CRs) that is tightly integrated with Github and Jira. ServiceNow is super clunky (you can't even have markdown in the fields to provide some decent formatting) and the copy-pasting of links gets tiring very fast.

Why would you want to loop in a completely separate service when GitHub and Jira already have an integration available?
Re: Jetbrains Space
#20I have actually used Spaces on a small side project with some friends up until a few months ago! It does seem to have improved since then, but when I was using it the project management/jira-ish features were pretty weak. Basically just tickets with IDs, that you could assign a status. It worked well for our little project but I wouldn’t be able to use it on a larger project. (Things like ticket relations and sub tasks that aren’t just check lists become pretty important imo to not losing things, vs just having everything be a free floating ticket)
The git host and PR management system is well built, and was by far the highlight of using it. It works really well, and I much preferred their model of PRs being just a message thread under the hood, so notifications show up in one spot and remain open and findable, in comparison to GitHub where I tend to lose PRs that I have already reviewed/interacted with once.
We never used the documents/confluence portion of the app, but it seemed capable at first glance, though if I was asked to pick a space to keep structured docs, I’d probably still use something like notion.
