Out of interest, do you have a link to the github issue?

How do you differentiate from asana [1]? The products seem very similar.

From my review, it looks like Asana tries to "replace" your email, whereas TaskMail punts the problem of trying to get folks to move away from email and just works within the confines of your email inbox.

As a user of Asana at my old company, I think the this paradigm of working within email will ultimately be the way forward for enterprise + medium sized companies, as getting larger companies to move away from email is probably not happening anytime soon. Whether or not this move happens with TaskMail, or some other tool, remains to be seen.

As an asana user, I too would like a response to this.

On: React Native is now open source

[jfhollingworth]

Some react-native developers were at last months React London User Group. It's apparently being built there but they are working through some perf issues.

When asked when it will be released they said "You will know when its released, it will be really obvious"

That's why we created https://github.com/jhollingworth/marty-chat-example. It's got proper examples of using HTTP & WebSockets

[namuol → jfhollingworth]

Ha, I actually submitted an issue to this yesterday. It's a good example but misses some really important (i.e. usually-confusing) stuff: error/failure handling and rollbacks.

I've opened a PR for it but it needs to be merged in https://github.com/voronianski/flux-comparison/pull/5

On: React Native

[jfhollingworth]

I believe it's only accessible to people who were at react-conf. Unless someone is kind enough to create a public mirror...
