Projects & ideas

Browse projects, propose new ideas, join the work, and post updates.

Projects are where your organization's work lives. You can explore what's happening, put forward your own ideas, join the projects you care about, and keep everyone posted with updates.

Browse projects#

Open the Projects area from the left sidebar to see the projects in your organization. From here you can get a sense of what teams are working on and find projects you'd like to be part of.

If you don't see a Projects section, your organization may not have it turned on yet. See Getting started for more on how the sidebar changes based on your organization's setup and your role.

Propose a new idea#

Have something you think the team should work on? You can propose a new project idea.

  1. Start a new project idea from the Projects area.
  2. Describe what it is and why it matters.
  3. Submit it.

Your idea begins life as suggested. It stays in that state until an admin approves it, at which point it becomes a full project. This keeps the project list intentional while still giving everyone a way to contribute ideas.

Join a project#

When a project interests you, you can join it to become a member. Joining signals that you're involved and helps the team know who's contributing.

Star projects you're following#

If you want to keep an eye on a project without necessarily joining it, you can star it. Starring is a simple way to bookmark the projects you're interested in so they're easy to find again.

Post updates#

Keep momentum visible by posting updates to a project. An update can be:

  • A video — a quick demo or walkthrough.
  • A link — point to something relevant elsewhere.
  • Notes — a short written update on progress.

Regular updates give the rest of your organization a clear picture of where things stand without anyone having to ask.

A quick recap#

  • Browse to explore your organization's projects.
  • Propose an idea — it's "suggested" until an admin approves it.
  • Join projects to become a member.
  • Star projects to follow the ones you care about.
  • Post updates with a video, a link, or notes.
