So here is a question.
I want an opensource tool that helps me creatively design software to communicate the design to others.

And thats where I'll cut off that question.
What tools are available ?

Oh yes, this kind of questions is my jam. Give me a minute 😌

This one is a bit tough, to be frank.
One creative thing that comes to mind is Penpot, open source prototyping tool.
To reduce mundane IDE setup in team: Gitpod.

@vintprox you know they're not building a navigation system, they're building a prison. and all the laundering that has been pointed out to me has long been discovered.

noone can do anything of the nature the whores do without being noticed anymore. dirty or not, someone is regulating all this.

@MadMadMadMrMim can you elaborate on your expectations?

@vintprox expectations are tools that be used to track features and issues but also allow a person to attach and design charts and the like.

like a project management tool, but with more emphasis on communication as at least one of the views.

@MadMadMadMrMim 📌
Never found any.

@vintprox yeah not surprising. you know i'm not sure what to really work on anymore. since the world seems so against actually trying anything and some weird patterned garbage want to make everyones brains glitch.

@vintprox god i wish i had been an adult in the 90s

@MadMadMadMrMim perhaps it's a call for us to open a collab? 😳

@vintprox would very much like to do so. right now i don't think i'd be rested enough to do anything but standard app development anyway lol

@MadMadMadMrMim can we chat about it somewhere else? I don't feel like giving away ideas here as on any forum 😆

@vintprox *shrugs* somehow i don't think you're serious :P people on here are very frequently sarcastic :P

@vintprox I want to start a gis company that resurveys and updates city and geographic features frequently and does aerial surveys to validate and verify other data

@MadMadMadMrMim whether I'm serious or not doesn't have say in certain scope, such as collaboration tooling. All I see, in this field particularly, is free trial bloatware and limited open source arsenal, unfortunately.

@vintprox yeah you have some older projects that could be extended.

redmine was fairly complete its just clunky and not tailored to really stand out to the user to say 'yeahhhh you're doing something and all this data is useful !'

@vintprox you know listening to this old piece of human machinery calling out numbers arbitrarily to apparently amuse easily amused weird ass people who were raised to some kind of stupid number and color system is rather annoying and redundant.

@MadMadMadMrMim of, Redmine just makes you hate it, in fact. If you have to buy plugins for it to make it truly convenient, it's no more good.

@vintprox was open source though right ?

@MadMadMadMrMim "open source" in what context? OSS is always the right choice for such tooling if you ask me.

@vintprox as in source provided do what you please with it extend it if you like etc

@vintprox yeah I checked its gpl

Isn’t it a shame php is sort of a good language for a project like that ?

@MadMadMadMrMim I mean, whatever drives your boat. Redmine is really boring: even database tells me this same story. It's Ruby on Rails, not PHP, so that was a real bottleneck when I tried to setup email notifications.

Speaking of PHP, Phabricator has something average between being a mundane abstractions container and advanced repository manager. Although, its installation process still is tedious, kind of interesting abstractions don't all feel lined up, and joke which is Remarkup (Markdown rip-off in Phabricator).

@vintprox is it ruby ? Which one was I thinking of ?
