chaskiq VS CodeTriage

We are thrilled to announce the release of Chaskiq 2.0, a major milestone for our open-source live chat and messaging system. This update marks the successful migration of our text editor, Dante.

Chasiq

Maybe you want to have a look at Zammad (screenshots) or Chaskiq (Website).

Forks often end up with difficulties and they're often outdated because people don't fetch upstream updates after a while. Also they have basically no visibility. Chasiq has 279 forks as of today and pretty much all of them are outdated.

Chaskiq is basically an omnichannel live chat platform with CRM and inbound/outbound marketing capabilities. Please check our https://github.com/chaskiq/chaskiq , for more information 😅. You can also check our website at https://chaskiq.io/ to test the product.

I think the Zendesk article forgot us, take a look at a truly open source solution for CRM, live chat and more. https://github.com/chaskiq/chaskiq

- Try https://github.com/chaskiq/chaskiq and see what we can do with it. My concern with it, is that it might not be "enterprise ready" in terms of reliability and security

3. Open Source Contribution

I wrote a book with a chapter on how to write docs for other people’s code https://howtoopensource.dev

I also wrote an open source tool for writing and testing tutorials https://github.com/zombocom/rundoc and another that will email you undocumented methods of open source code so you can practice writing documentation https://www.codetriage.com/.

CodeTriage helps you contribute to open source by “picking a handful of open issues and delivering them directly to your inbox”. (Source: CodeTriage)

Here are open source projects listed https://www.codetriage.com/ You can filter for "C".

The biggest untaped potential (IMHO) is not one company funding 1 full time maintainer, but EVERY company allowing and encouraging EVERY developer to help and work with open source. This was the basis of my web app https://www.codetriage.com/. I have a chapter on it in my book How to Open Source (https://howtoopensource.dev/), and I talked to Yehuda about it for about an hour after my last talk at Philly ETE.

You can also use websites like up-for-grabs, goodfirstissue, or CodeTriage to find projects with open issues. Find one that looks easy or interesting to you and comment on it, asking if you can take a shot at it.

I recommend these resources to help you contribute https://www.codetriage.com/ (free) and https://howtoopensource.dev/ (paid). DM if you can’t afford a copy.
