Octobox 📮: Untangle your GitHub Notifications is here to rescue you from the chaos of GitHub notifications. If you've ever felt buried under a mountain of alerts, you're not alone. Managing notifications can feel like trying to juggle flaming torches while riding a unicycle. But fret not, Octobox is your trusty sidekick to restore order to the madness. First off, Octobox isn't your run-of-the-mill notification manager. This bad boy comes with an extra “archived” state for each notification, giving you the power to mark things as done without losing sight of them. If anything new pops up in an archived thread, issue, or PR, Octobox drags it back into your inbox. How cool is that? If you’ve got notifications that need more than just a checkmark, hit ‘em with a star! Even if you can’t call them your favorite, you can flag the important ones so they’re ready for you when you need them. Those high-priority issues are always within arm’s reach when you need ‘em. Octobox doesn’t stop at notifications either. It integrates issue and pull-request statuses, CI statuses, labels—you name it—all displayed alongside basic info like title, organization, repo, and type. This way, you get a dashboard that's not just clutter-free but actually useful. Filters, filters, and more filters. Love ‘em or hate ‘em, filters are your friends here. You can sort your notifications by practically any criteria you want: repository, organization, type, action, state, CI status, and reason. Even those notifications from bots hang out with your standard labels, authors, and assignees. Got a needle-in-a-haystack situation? Octobox’s search with prefix filters is practically magic. Forget trying to remember old-school tricks; these powerful filters get you where you need to go fast—zeroing in on just what you need. And for the keyboard warriors out there, Octobox is a dream come true. Navigate, triage, and manage your notifications like a pro using Gmail-inspired keyboard shortcuts for every function. Think of all the time you’ll save not having to reach for the mouse. Plus, Octobox is truly open-source. Developed by and for the community, you can be sure that what you see is what you get. Dive into the development process, or even better, contribute! Your input is welcomed and valued. Got GitHub projects to manage? Octobox might just become your new best friend. Its “archived” state ensures nothing slips through the cracks, even after you’ve marked it as done. And did we mention you can self-host it? Follow the step-by-step guide to deploy it on Heroku, Docker, or your preferred platform. For those who’d rather keep things local, Octobox runs beautifully as a desktop app. With Nativefier, you can convert it into a local application and have it ready to roll in no time. Or, if browser extensions are more your speed, Octobox has got you covered with extensions for Chrome and Firefox. But remember, to get the full Octobox experience, make sure web notifications are enabled on your GitHub settings. If you handle vulnerability notifications, ensure those are turned on too. Navigating through endless comment threads? Octobox’s thread view support is currently in public beta—so if you’re feeling adventurous, turn it on and try it out. Threads sync so you can easily view them within Octobox itself. Octobox ain't just a pretty face with cool features. It’s backed by a community of supporters and sponsors, so consider becoming a backer or sponsor if you find it invaluable. Contributing is a breeze. Whether you're fixing bugs, adding new features, or triaging issues, the Octobox community welcomes you. Kickstart your journey by checking out issues tagged as “Help Wanted” or subscribe to CodeTriage. Who knows, become a frequent contributor, and you might just be invited to join the list of maintainers! So, if you’re tired of fighting an uphill battle with GitHub notifications, give Octobox a whirl. It's time to tame the chaos and get back to focusing on what truly matters—your code.
