All PRs

I’ve had a job where the workflow was very intense: tickets were changing their state quickly by code reviews and feedback given to my PRs. Back in the day Github notifications had a lot of flaws. That’s the reason why I was looking for a browser extension, or a web application I could use to receive better Github notifications.

I discovered Octobox: you only need to provide a token with restricted permissions, and you will get even desktop notifications about what is going on.

Octobox is a web application written in Ruby on Rails, on the issues tab of the repo I found an issue describing a bug with the star feature: whenever you star a notification, you have to refresh the page in order to see the star.

This article’s PR links the bugfix I submitted to fix the issue.
