Can we have Gitter channel "swagger-codegen" ? #5274

Open sytolk opened 7 years ago

I have check in https://gitter.im/ that swagger-codegen channel is missing. We can create chat channel for this github project in order to receive faster answers to questions and have FAQ too. And to skip writing github issues for questions.

@sytolk thanks for the suggestion. We've considered a gitter chat room before but decided not to create one since 1) there's already a IRC channel for real time discussion. This is not to say the IRC channel is better than gitter. 2) We already have a FAQ in our wiki: https://github.com/swagger-api/swagger-codegen/wiki/FAQ (again this is not to say the FAQ provided by gitter is bad) 3) Ideally we want to have one single place for discussion, bug report, etc and github issue page is good enough so far to meet our requirement (if you look at my replies in SO, I usually advise people to open an "issue" in our github repo).

I would suggest you try the IRC channel first to see if you like it.

Just a side note: the Swagger Codegen core team has a gitter chat room (private) to facilitate discussions within the core team.
