::Workspaces: Turn your article into a project

We're proud to announce CodeProject::Workspaces. This is a project we started over a year ago with the aim to see the "Project" part of CodeProject come to life.

First, ::GitMachine

We've had article versioning for a long time but not source code versioning so we've added a Git backend to CodeProject to provide full source code control for your articles. No more emailing fixes for someone's article in the hope they would merge. Now anyone can fork any article's code, make a fix, and issue a pull request. New versions of articles can be forked and grow and the Gigabytes of code we have on our servers can get a new lease of life. Yay.

Then, ::Tasks

We've had discussion boards forever but only a mediocre way to manage bugs and suggestions, so we've added ::Tasks, our task tracking system to allow you manage your TODOs for your articles. Drag and drop items, paste screenshots, live updates, comment and set alerts on items that send emails to team mates. Extremely customisable and extremely simple. It's the task tracking system we wrote because we never found the one that did what we needed. We're switching to it for CodeProject.com's bugs and suggestions and use it ourselves exclusively.

Finally, ::Workspaces

Wrapping Git and Tasks together is ::Workspaces, which serves as a backend for your articles and allows you to connect to your code using your favourite Git client, and to manage your and your users TODOs within a single project.

Build your own Workspace

Git and Tasks (and everything else we'll be adding) is great for articles but you can create your own Workspace independent of an article. Within a single Workspace you can have as many code repositories as you want, and as many Task trackers as you need, and you can invite as many people as you wish to collaborate on your workspace. And of course you can create as many Workspaces as you want. There are no limits.

If you're an author you already have a Workspace. Every article has a Workspace backing it, and you can fork the code of your or any other article into a new workspace. It's that easy.

Private Workspaces

One of the first questions we heard while building this was "can I make my Workspace private". Yes, absolutely.

Private Workspaces are available to Premium members and their are no limits on the number of private workspaces that can be managed by a premium member. The first 10,000 Premium memberships will be locked in at $2/month for the first 5 years (offer expires May 30) down from the standard $9/month.

Just the Start.

Our primary goal with this was to unlock all of the work that those who download code do with the downloaded code, and to create an easy environment where they can manage their work and submit their updates and be notified when others submit updates too. This is only the start, though: We've built a full platform on which to base our work and will be adding features and services constantly.

We've been using Workspaces internally for a long time now and we're incredibly proud to be able to offer it to our community. Please take a look around and give it a try.

cheers,
Chris Maunder
