GitHub 2 Range ·

Range helps teams know what’s happening, stay in sync, and actually feel like a team. It’s thoughtfully designed software that helps teams share daily check-ins, track goals, and run better meetings. So you can do your best work together.

Everything is easier in Range because it works with the tools you already use. Your tasks, documents, and code changes are already in Range, so you don’t have to enter data twice.

About

Range supports native integrations for both GitHub and GitHub Enterprise via GitHub's OAuth APIs. However in some situations it is not possible to use these APIs, either due to administrative controls or firewalls that prevent API access.

This package provides a self-hosted script that allows you to generate GitHub suggestions without giving Range direct access to GitHub APIs or tokens.

Installation

npm install -g github2range
