Feature of adding play directly from user codebase through website

[shrilakshmishastry]

Current behavior:

1. User needs to clone the react-play repo
2. follow cmd steps to create play
3. copy-paste from their original play / create one
4. push it back to react-play codebase at GitHub

Feature Request

1. Feature in the website itself, where the user pastes his play codebase URL which is in GitHub
2. fetch code from his codebase and add play automatically

Interesting, how would the code review phase we are going to satisfy?

[shrilakshmishastry]

Can we add an intermediate stage, like once the play is taken, it automatically creates a branch in GHU, and the code review phase can be done and then merged?

Yes, I would love to try that automation. This is something we need to explore.

Something like,

• Create a branch automatically
• The branch should have all the skeleton code we creating already
• Create an issue for the branch work
• Assign the issue to the user who created the play.

I'm not sure yet, how much of this workflow automation is possible today. It is worth exploring.

@koustov is doing the design for a create workflow from the UI itself.
