I just have non-devs use the browser interface and this seems to work for text edits and image uploads and stuff.
And some statisticians and stuff only know how to use the GitHub desktop client and that works ok for 99% of them. Drives me crazy because I only use cli and struggle to help when they get blocked with the client.
- jagger27 5y agoThe cynic in me says they’re taking advantage of the fact that the web UI is a lower friction experience to drive more people towards Codespaces (which are not cheap, by the way).
- IfOnlyYouKnew 5y agoMaybe you could tell your cynic that web Interface are intrinsically easier for people used to them, and that for GitHub, the difference hasn’t changed since times when Codespaces neither existed nor were even planned.
- prepend 5y agoPerhaps, but GitLab had a browser ide earlier, and I think theirs is better. So it’s more likely to just be normal GitHub v GitLab feature competition.
