The CodeStream Blog

This year I attended the Kubernetes Cloud Native Open Source Summit for the first time. For those who don’t know, KubeCon is the largest open source conference in North America with over 12,000 attendees. Several companies sponsor panels, meetups and round-table discussions on new feature releases for the open source cloud native community. I was taken aback by the level of engagement from speakers and attendees. I also thought the most under appreciated perk was the ping pong table in the expo area — great way to relax between sessions and network.

CodeStream now leverages commit hashes to do more sophisticated repo matching.

Coformatique uses CodeStream to facilitate more effective and efficient peer code review between remote development team members. Coformatique is a software development company using the latest platforms and technologies to create innovative mobile and web applications for its clients. The company specializes in designing and developing new applications and MVP products. Coformatique has executive leadership and sales personnel in Europe, while the development team is located in Cairo, Egypt. 

CodeStream has sophisticated algorithms that automatically move codemarks to the right location as the code changes. Sometimes though, codemarks get disconnected from the code and the best approach to keep them relevant is to manually attach them to the right code block. Scenarios where that situation is applicable include relocation to a different file, or a file being renamed, among others. This new feature allows you to retain knowledge about your code in the correct context. 

After spending two years at ICONIQ Capital, I am excited to share the news that I have decided to join CodeStream, makers of a leading code discussion tool that is revolutionizing developer documentation and code review methodologies. I wanted to share why I embarked on this journey to help build a company in the software development tool space.

Many discussions about code involve more than just one block of code, and concepts are often best presented when you can refer to multiple code locations at once. CodeStream’s latest release introduces multi-range codemarks that address exactly those scenarios.
