Yeah I think so. Honestly we don't really have much in terms of analytics but based on timing it was earlier than hacker news. I think the verge users were more likely to initiate a migration from Pocket or Instapaper. Imports can be quite intensive if we have to fetch the content, especially because a number of older sites might not exist anymore and timeout.

When we started I liked the concept of the mono repo. Things like a client update landing in the same commit as it's API requirements and doc changes all sounded great.

I still think there are some pros of the mono repo, but definitely some cons as well. Especially for people trying to work on just a small bit of the code.

jacksonh | 12 years ago | on: On the Road to Continuous Delivery at Localytics

It's pretty nice to see companies that are still young working so hard on their process and making effort to do things "the right way"

I use localytics for a couple of my apps and its a really useful service.

jacksonh | 12 years ago | on: Show HN: CodeReview – An iPad app for reviewing, editing, merging pull requests

Thanks sirn. The top two things are on the roadmap. Especially preview.

Regarding font selection, which fonts would you like? I'll have to bundle the fonts with the app, so I'd like to hear what people are into. Right now it uses Meslo for source and Avenir everywhere else.

GitHub recently fixed the unable to fetch PR updates when issues are disabled thing. You aren't using GitHub Enterprise are you?

jacksonh | 12 years ago | on: Show HN: CodeReview – An iPad app for reviewing, editing, merging pull requests

Yeah I agree. I'm going to put more effort into the site eventually. In the short term there are details on http://blog.codereview.io and on the actual App Store page ( http://tinyurl.com/codereview-appstore ).

To directly answer your questions: it is GitHub only. I see the main benefit vs other tools is a streamlined and focused workflow for reviewing and collaborating on pull requests. Also the iPad form factor is a nice change of pace vs reviewing on your computer.
