Thanks for sharing these. GitKraken website looks awesome! I will definitely check it out. That Win95 looks interesting too.

I just came across this yesterday: github.com/felixrieseberg/windows95. It is a fully-functional Windows 95 in electron!

Great list Nick! I use refined-github and zendesk personally and are amazing.

Thank you for the list; I am adding others now :D.

You're welcome, David!

What is your use-case with zendesk? I thought the integration is mainly for support tickets?

I used ZenDesk in a small dev group in a Kan-ban style workflow. We had 'ideas', 'researching', 'implementing', 'on dev', and 'deployed' and the like. It worked out well enough for the small team. It did, as you pointed out, allow us to take user reported issue straight into our workflow (that can be a good or a bad thing depending on your organization).

Hope that helps.

Love Gitkraken as well as it solves my multi platform laptops (Linux, MacOS and from time to time Windows).
It works really well.
