Ship code faster with Graphite. Stay unblocked on code review with “stacking” - the workflow engineers at top companies use to accelerate their development. Now available to anyone with a GitHub account.

?makers I have a question: Do all team members need to be using Graphite as well? Or can a single person be using it and still see benefits?
@mrmartineau Not everyone has to be using Graphite! Graphite syncs seamlessly to Github so your team members can continue using their preferred workflow, and you as an author can unblock your development with stacks. That said, Graphite is more fun with your team :)
@mrmartineau I think once you have a few folks on your team using Graphite, everyone else will want in! To help out your coworkers who aren't on it yet, Graphite automatically keeps a comment up to date on GitHub that shows the other pull requests in your stack. We also have a Chrome extension that adds a few enhancements to the GitHub page.

I can't say enough positive things about Graphite. It keeps me and my team unblocked by decoupling work from reviews, which means our reviews are more thorough, and we're not bugging each other for reviews constantly, breaking flow. Their community Slack is active and the team is super responsive to feedback.
Honestly, they're doing everything right. Graphite has saved me literal days of time over the last year, and I'm so happy it's finally out of beta for the world to see.
@carlbrenner Thank you so much for your support :) Some of our most active teams only have ~5 developers on them and still find Graphite really helpful!
@tomasreimers Thanks for the info Tomas! It might be interesting to try it soon :)

I’m incredibly excited for this launch, this is a game changer for devs and accelerates timelines to ship code. What features are next on the Graphite roadmap?
@conor_brennan_burke1
In addition to what Pranathi mentioned, some of the local features we're working on for the CLI and VS Code extension are:
- Continually improving the experience around collaborating on stacks with your coworkers
- A new command to automatically apply staged changes to the right branches in your stack without having to check each one out (ever heard of `hg absorb`?)
- An undo command
- More updates to the VSCode extension to make the transition from editing code to creating and updating your stack even smoother
- Automated syncing
Any of these sound particularly exciting?

Stacking code changes has been such a game changer that I wouldn't even consider working at a company where this developer workflow doesn't exist. Code reviewing without Graphite is like code reviewing with a typewriter instead of a computer.
If you want to 1. multiply developer velocity 2. attract the best technical talent, use Graphite.
@carlgao Number 2 is so important! I always tell people the reason I'm so convicted that Graphite will succeed is because I know I'd absolutely NEED it anywhere else!!!
@dodolab Thank you so much for the support over the years! You're a friendly face in our community slack - please keep the feedback coming, and we'll keep working our hardest to create your favorite dev tool

Since leaving a big tech co, I have been looking for a good stacked diff workflow. There's spr, there are home grown bash scripts, but all of them feel a little janky. All of them make me wonder "were stacked diffs actually as good as I remember?"
Graphite answers that question with a resounding yes and provides some other great features besides.
