Console’s review

· Reviewed by David Mytton

What we like

Live dashboard with views based on GitHub filters - show PRs & issues. Customizable columns, keybinding actions, refresh interval. Themable. Can perform basic actions e.g. comment, assign, merge. Extension built on top of the gh CLI so you don’t need extra creds. Watch issues to get notifications on check completion.

Tradeoffs

Search initially says there are no results whilst search is in progress - it sometimes takes a few seconds during which time it looks like there are no results.

Keep in mind

The search function may initially show no results while it is processing, which can be misleading
