Inspiration

We all read updates of multiple components, services, and libraries, and it is hard to consume them because they have different shapes, audiences and ultimate purposes. We believe there is a place for a platform that helps you stay on top of product updates in the way you prefer and when you prefer. Driving a common standard of release notes.

What it does

The platform we have built enables the production and consumption of release notes in one place in the way you prefer. Get Release Notes platform provides a flexible, but opinionated standard of release notes.

How we built it

We had fun building with the Atlassian Forge development platform, which enabled us to deliver our solution rapidly and smoothly. We used Atlaskit with React to build our custom UX and Forge to provide the backbone of the application.

Challenges we ran into

We had a short ramp-up time with Atlassian Forge and had a few difficulties combining a custom React UI with the Forge app. We tried to build using Forge UI, but it missed multiple things we needed. Parallel development had some issues we overcame by creating a template of the manifest file, and each developer had to register his/her own Forge app.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We have a working application that is coming soon to the Atlassian Compass Marketplace.

What we learned

How to build Compass apps. How to build with the Atlassian Forge platform.

What's next for Release notes for Compass

We are making this app public to all Atlassian Compass customers and working on a standalone application to power the release notes of the Internet.
