- Sesse__ 6y agoIt's a reimplementation of an earlier system called Mondrian, which you can find some information on.
- cmrdporcupine 6y agoI used Mondrian for the last couple months it existed, and I recall critique being fairly different. I think they kept the same keystrokes, though. That is one nice thing about Critique is although it's a webapp you can drive it pretty much entirely by keyboard. It has the feel of an old usenet newsreader like nn, in a way.
- ikiris 6y agoHere I'm sitting here thinking could I draw it from memory?
- antoinealb 6y agoIt went through a re-design recently. I don't think I would call it a well-guarded secret though, if you look at Phabricator's Differential, it is very similar [0]. [0] https://www.phacility.com/phabricator/differential/ https://www.phacility.com/phabricator/differential/
- jonhohle 6y agoReading through that page it seems like every single component is an unrelated, seemingly random, “cute” name. Are cli, triggers/actions, and rules too generic? Out of context, what meaning do Arcanist, Maniphest, or Herald have?

But yeah... even I find the names difficult to handle and remember, even after using Phabricator for more than 4 years now. Nevertheless, it is a great piece of software, especially the code review process is top-notch.
- lima 6y agoNot really. The "Software Engineering at Google" book[1] has a whole chapter on it with screenshots. Gerrit, Reviewable and Phabricator are very similar, except that Critique is much more polished. Having used all three, Gerrit works best and the new UI is starting to look pretty good. Reviewable has great UX, but inherits some of the disadvantages of GitHub PRs.
