Honestly, if you are a programmer and you like Nostr, what is preventing you from trying out https://ngit.dev/ in your next project?

Is it 100% CLI?
You can search repos and see issues on the website.
What should I search for?
I should
Wait, you’ve abandoned go-nostr, and now we should follow you on ngit?
GitWorkshop.dev
Decentralized github alternative over Nostr
I love this. Thanks
Alexandria, as well.
We actually have three repo announcements.
"Exciting times ahead! Looking forward to seeing what’s in store for all three announcements. Always love a good surprise! 🎉"
Maybe provide more functional examples of using it. Seems like there is 2 billion test repos out there that people have created.
Are there any serious projects actually being hosted on gitworkshop.dev.
I put a project out there 2 months or so ago and can't find it now. Searching for stuff on gitworkshop.dev is a nightmare.
on my todo list
Somewhat, yes. But this is like a v2 of go-nostr with too many (but small) breaking changes it wasn't worth keeping the same name.
Please make some way forward official when you can Fiatjat. Even if it means "just contribute to old reps for now". Go-nostr "v1" at least has recent contributions, but I have breaking changes of my own TK Khatru, eventstore, etc. 🤣
Is this a decentralised github? Or something else?
I checked it a few times: yes, it helps to decentralise prs, but on the “maintainer side” the repo is not decentralised, since it is still on GitHub & c. (and I understand that probably it is difficult to have a fully decentralised repo). So, for my personal repos for which I already have a GitHub/Gitlab account, why I should use ngit instead of git? Surely I’m missing something. 😢
we did some zap tests on this note… your profile only specifies a nip05 nostr address, but not a lightning address, so we tried to zap your nip05 address.... we made six attempts to⚡zap this note, at narring_@nostr.directory, over a period of 5 minutes. in each case, we found that your lightning address service or server did not respond correctly. if you wanted to fix this... you could try getting a free rizful lightning address -- 
... if u get it set up, pls reply here so we can do this ⚡zap test again.
Rizful: Lightning Services
Free Lightning vaults, and instant, disposable Lightning Nodes.
sheer bloodymindedness
my laziness will always be my greatest enemy
OK, I follow your path.
I am in perpetual loading state, and I cannot use the web ui @DanConwayDev
Does ngit work exactly like git?
Would other software know how to deal with it if I open it in Xcode for example?
Yes ngit is git over nostr. At least that is my understanding of the vision.
> xcode
No idea
momentum, which i am aware is a bad answer
👀 at ngit
NOSTR alternative for GitHub?
Waiting on network effect
If I remember correctly, the repos are still on Github no?
Because my fiat job is draining my energy
GitWorkshop sadly has no possibility to directly edit code. So it's not a full alternative yet.
Ok, on first sight this looks very much like I envision the solution to @jack's github replacement bounty.
Make git projects discoverable outside of the github silo.
Let users create issues agnostic to the git server.
Let people request merges across different git hosters. GitLab to GitHub or self hosted gitea...
Sorry @Alex Gleason for opening an issue ;)
