This is a fantastic idea and I'm really excited to start using this - I wanted to develop this kind of program for a while.
This is my use case:
I work with designers who are hesitant to use git and make changes really quick and test them on a live WP or similar site. Often times we have two or three people needing to edit a single css file and everyone has to open/close the file often to not overwrite the changes of others. Maybe there is a better workflow, but a collaborative editing tool like this will go a long way in streamlining this process.
- kaushikt 13y agoYou are completely right about the designer bit. Sadly enough, some of my colleagues are still very hooked up with SVN and are not really set on moving on to Git. In cases like these, i think this could actually help.
- jrpt 13y agoYou could teach them to how to use SmartGit or a git management application. I'm technical and I still prefer SmartGit over the command line.
- kaushikt 13y agoI have asked my colleagues to try out the git mac app by github. That really helps. I prefer CLI to be honest. I will check out SmartGit, never really heard about it before. Thanks.
- BHSPitMonkey 13y agoThat's easy; Just migrate your CSS to a Google Doc, then add some logic to your build process to download the doc via the Drive API and unformat the text. What could go wrong? :)
- kansface 13y agoA surprisingly nice feature of using floobits has been in building our own website- we stream changes to staging in real time. Feedback is immediate and trivially sharable. We will add better integration later for running hooks based on file globing, etc. So, you could do things like automatically compile less or restart a service when a file is saved or changed, etc.
