Bocoup’s Most Important (Empty) GitHub Repo
Bocoup loves GitHub. Our code lives there, we collaborate and code review using Pull Requests, and it makes deployment a breeze. For the last year, we’ve even started using GitHub to manage Bocoup. What? As Bocoup has grown, we’ve started using new tools to manage information internally. We wanted a company Wiki, but which one […]
