One question. Is there any way that if I click a JIRA link somewhere, like email or Slack, that it could open in the TUI instead of in the browser? I just can’t imagine that being possible.
I still dont understand why there is no unified UI for a lof of ticketing systems, I'm so tired of popping into different teams and its a night and day difference between how things are configured.Just give me a kanban board.
is there something like this for Asana, I hate their UI and UX. Their keyboard shortcuts are based off `Tab` key being a "modifier" which makes absolutely no sense.
It’s awesome! I wrote a TUI for Jira for my own use, with extra stats like average time spent on tasks and counts of issues or bugs per epic. But yours looks so nice and polished—thanks for sharing your work!
Brilliant. Really nice looking TUI.
One thing I noticed is that I still find myself using the mouse to click the form fields. The keyboard navigation seems to sometimes get stuck on fields and I then can't move around anymore. Is there an easy trick for jumping between the fields?
Wow. Really cool. I wasn't expecting something so polished.
JIRA speed drives me crazy sometimes, so a couple of months ago I decided to build myself a tool to do instant searches/filters on multiple projects right from the browser just to scratch my own itch.
I just wanted to see if I could have near-instant filtering. I think I got a pretty decent performance by using some JS tricks. I'm sure there might be ways to make it even faster.
Page is around 70kb (HTML+CSS+JS). Everything is manually crafted. I know the design won't win a beauty contest, but it does feel instant and works for my personal use-case. I had a lot of fun building this side-project.
There is a public URL, feel free to try it out [1]. Already mentioned in a previous comment in HN a while ago [2].
For the record, it uses a proxy because of CORS. Proxy is in few lines of golang. No NPM or any other framework used to make the project. In any case, if anybody is interested in the source code to run it yourself I'm happy to make the project public. Trusting a proxy on some random's guy on internet is probably a bad idea, given all NPM shit that happened yesterday, in any case, if you want to try, feel free, but use at your own risk :P
This is cool. I'm not a fan of TUIs at all (poor man's GUI if you ask me) but anything beats the Jira website trash.
I will definitely be curious to see how much of Jira's abysmal performance is due to the website design (got to be a fair bit given how badly things like drag and drop perform) and how much is due to the server.
What I like about TUIs are that they are forced to be simple, and are forced to load all data at once. I don’t prefer interacting with an app in a terminal window, but I do prefer the kinds of apps that are built with these constraints in mind.
There’s nothing preventing web apps from being built this way, but they just often are not.
I consider it the frugal man's GUI. Right now looking at top, any time I load a browser tab with Jira content chromium spikes to the top of the list. I'm not even doing anything with it.
I desparately want something like this for Github.
I appreciate the value of the web browser providing the universal "quick" GUI (as in "I can open it on most devices and instantly interact"), but for power users I really wish more people were shipping things that helped out people not afraid to learn a bunch of keyboard commands
I do have some complaints about the Jira web ui (in particular it seems finding correct issues can be difficult), though maybe nothing too severe.
For me the most useful thing would be a cli tool (not tui) to just add stories. This way I could just write a bunch of stories in a text file (..or an .org file..) with the conveniences of my editor and upload them. Seems jiratui actually comes with some cli tools as well, but it doesn't seem this is yet included, or it's not just documented yet. I'll give a shot to this..
Now I'm doing that by copypasting the entries from the file, one by one, to the fields in the web ui, and not all of the fields can be copy pasted, and then updating also the file to have the correct issue ids so I can use them for finding issues with e.g. grep. Naturally this will only work for my stories, and won't synchronize with changes made in Jira.

I have something similar for confluence. I'm the only known user though, it's probably full of bugs.

...I also wonder if Atlassian might try acquire this for 600M? /s
