    Next generation iOS and Android apps for Mattermost in React Native

  • On the mobile platform end, as we’re getting closer to the mobile v2 GA we’re trying to pull our weight to shipping this thing on time. Hardcore style. We’ve now added support for announcement banners (allowing us to broadcast our new levels of extreme hardcoreness), and we will soon allow you to share how extremely hardcore fans you are of v2, with an in-app review dialog. We have also integrated Sentry, so we will have more insight into how the app is performing and when it crashes, hardcore. And last but not least, the work on a nice piece of share sheet is heading toward Android (previously only implemented on iOS).

    Mattermost Desktop application for Windows, Mac and Linux (by mattermost)

  • On the desktop platform end, we’re in extremely hardcore negotiation with Apple to ship v5.2.1 of our desktop app to the Mac app store. While flexing that muscle, we’re also working on the desktop diagnostics UI. While not technically platform work: floating panels for Calls are coming to the desktop app, adding to the list of differentiators that make the desktop app The Best Client™️ for every extremely hardcore Mattermost user. And if you’re not one of them, you have no business being here, frankly.

    Discontinued Multiplex connections (by agnivade)

  • On the server platform side, half of the team was involved with the aforementioned extremely hardcore pipeline action. If you have any questions related to Gitlab, ATA (Ask Them Anything)! The server platform team in general is a team with a high level of hardcoreness. We supported some extremely hardcore load testing of upcoming Channels features, for instance. And we got Perseus to the level where we can put some extremely hardcore strain on it, to it see if that will make it sweat. Writing a PgBouncer replacement in 6 weeks could be assessed as an extremely hardcore engineering effort.

  • On the QA platform side, we supported the hardcore Mattermost 7.5 release. We’re also going to temporarily support the Calls team with their end-to-end testing needs for a while. The goal is to make sure Calls sustains its high level of quality. Hmm, what would be a good name for this Mattermost-level of quality? Right, one could frame this as a extremely hardcore level of quality. Also soon, mattermod will gain the ability to automatically run end-to-end tests for mobile.
