HappyHour

A daily standup tool

This is a small application for MacOS that may help you keep track of notes for your daily standup. Especially if your standups are conducted asynchronously via Email, Slack, etc. It runs as a menu bar application, so it doesn't clutter your dock.

The screenshot above will produce a message ready to paste into your standup thread, similar to this:

Today:
✅ Rewrite some code PR 123
✅ Fix that annoying bug BUG-4 PR 124
Tomorrow:
➡️ Out on holiday tomorrow
QBI:
⁉️ I'm blocked waiting for answers from QA on BUG-7
Will we ship on time? 🤷
Is Jira up to date? ✅
