How we work on Tickets

Linear and SyncLinear.com

We use linear.app for all issue tracking and use synclinear.com, our self-made Linear 🔄 GitHub Sync tool to 1-to-1 sync tickets.
This app lets you mirror Linear tickets to public GitHub issues, comments and all. This way, open-source teams can chat with contributors without giving access to an internal Linear team.
By default, every ticket from Linear will be sent to GitHub and comments and statuses will be synced back and forth.
Non-team members such as open-source contributors can continue to create tickets on Github and Cal.com Core members can assign the label "linear" to sync it back into Linear.
The roadmap will continue to be public: cal.com/roadmap.
We run on a monthly tagged release schedule with a weekly minor release each Monday.
For tracking milestones, we use Linear Projects (v.2.2, v.2.3, etc.).
