Great article, Shailen! I agree that email has its own merits for maintaining focus and reducing distractions. However, have you considered using a tool that integrates directly with your IDE, like the Leiga IDE plugin ?
Some advantages of the Leiga IDE plugin include:

  1. In-code task management: Create, update, and close tickets directly from your IDE, reducing context switching.
  2. Seamless linking: Connect code changes to corresponding tickets, providing clear context for collaborators.
  3. AI-powered task automation: Identify and prioritize tasks effectively, ensuring important work isn't overlooked. I think this approach could help developers balance the need for communication and collaboration with the desire for focused, uninterrupted work. Give it a try and share your thoughts!
