FAQs

How much does it cost?
The VS Code + Slack extension is free to use. However, we might introduce paid features and products in the future.

Do I need Slack admin approval?
If your Slack Workspace has App Approvals enabled, you will need to ask someone with Slack Admin permissions to approve the CodeConvo application for the first time. Once the application is approved, anyone in your Slack Workspace will be able to install and use CodeConvo without restrictions.

I can simply copy and paste code. Why should I use CodeConvo?
CodeConvo removes steps from the process of sharing code with colleagues such as having to open Slack and locate the right channel, format pasted code and describe the vital context such as where the code came from. With the CodeConvo application you can share code with a simple VS Code command and context such as the file path, line number and repository will be automatically appended by the extension. This makes code sharing via CodeConvo more seamless, time-effective and reduces disruption to your flow.
