   A smart calendar app to boost my productivity

   I love the way I can quickly glance at the next meeting in the menu bar on MacOS. I can also get the overview of all the upcoming meetings with one click from the menu bar icon or with keyboard shortcut. It definitely saves my time in searching the calendar tab in the browser a gazillion times in a day.

   The event notifications are also very helpful as they show up just one minute before the meeting starts and allow me to join meetings with just one click on the ‘Join’ button.

   The notifications come with a great functionality of notifying attendees of the meeting in case I am running late for the meeting via Slack without opening the window of native Slack app and searching for the attendee just to send a small message that I am running late for the meeting. Thank you to the Alkanzo team for saving me from the last minute hassle every now and then while I am running late for my next meeting!

   🏁 Competitors: Superpowered, MeetingBar

   👍 Pros:    Nice and slick design.|Timely notifications, just one minute before the meeting starts.|Runs on mac, windows and linux. i can use it on pretty much any of your laptops and desktops|Connects with google calendar and microsoft outlook calendar, two of the most popular calendar apps at present|Reasonable pricing.

   👎 Cons:    I would really love to see this app expand its scope beyond just giving an overview of upcoming meetings to also help me to keep track and give an overview of the tasks that i want to get done on time.

• From React to Hotwire - Part II - [EN]

  Attending the latest edition of Rails World and watching the talk by DHH made me realize that generating views on the backend with Rails was no longer synonymous with slow, ugly interfaces that do not care about UX. With Hotwire, through Turbo and Stimulus, it was possible to create applications as complex as Gmail, Hey, or Slack, Campfire. And this became even more surreal with Turbo 8. - Source: dev.to / 15 days ago

• HEY.com Review: A Game-Changer or A Gimmick?

  In June 2020, Basecamp decided to take on the giants of email service providers with the launch of HEY.com, aiming to revolutionize the way we interact with our inboxes. Touted as the email service for those who love email but hate its clutter, HEY.com has certainly generated buzz. But does it live up to the hype? Let's delve into its features, usability, and overall value proposition. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

• Don't upload your PWA to the app stores

  HEY is a big company, with financial resources and a large social media following. If even they feel bullied by Apple, just imagine what it's like for smaller app developers. And HEY is not even a PWA – it's a native app. - Source: dev.to / 6 months ago

• Thinking about what to do if Basecamp/Hey look like they are going under

  I like to use software by smaller companies with a focus on privacy. I am now starting to regret putting my full email support behind hey.com. With 1/3 of the Basecamp employees bailing I'm concerned if Hey.com will survive and the disruption that is going to be informing everyone that I've had to change emails. I went in big on Hey using it both for personal and work email. Source: about 3 years ago

• Hey for domains... the right way.

  Well one of the key selling points of the personal account is that you get a hey.com address. On the flip side they developed the business account and everything around it to use the customer's domain. I'm just guessing, however I suspect it is something along the lines of:.
