All incident.io developers are given a MacBook which they use for their development work. That meant when Apple released the M3 MacBook Pros in October, people naturally started asking questions like “wow, how much more productive might I be if my laptop looked that good?” and “perhaps we’d be more secure if our machines were Space Black 🤔” Pete’s (our CTO) response to this was “if you can prove it’s worthwhile, we’ll do it”

Monitoring your GitHub account is important for maintaining code quality, facilitating collaboration, ensuring security, enabling smooth development workflows, and improving overall project management and efficiency. This will allow you to stay updated on code changes, pull requests, issues, and comments and facilitates collaboration among team members, ensuring everyone is informed about the progress and status of your projects.

Monitoring your instance of MongoDB is important for maintaining optimal database performance, ensuring security, detecting and addressing issues promptly, and planning for future growth and scalability. Database and infrastructure monitoring allows for the early detection of potential problems such as server overload, disk space shortages, or network issues.

When declaring and responding to an incident with incident.io, most of your interactions with our product will go via Slack. You might configure your forms in our web dashboard, but the responder using them to declare an incident is most likely doing so from a Slack modal, and the incident announcement will be posted as a Slack message. This means a lot of our product design falls within the constraints of what we can build using Slack’s block kit.
