Gameplan

Gameplan is an async-first discussions tool for remote teams. It encourages thoughtful communication and deep-thinking.

Motivation

We've been remote first since day one, but as our team grew, chat tools like Telegram fell short. Missing out on crucial conversations became a major issue. We needed a better way to keep everyone connected and in sync. That's how Gameplan was born - to solve the problems of modern remote work!

Key Features

• Thread-first discussions: Gameplan lets you start a discussion and have people comment on it at their own pace, encouraging thoughtful conversation and deep thinking. No more feeling obligated to be online all the time.

• Spaces for organization: Spaces help you categorize conversations by project, team, client, or topic – whatever makes sense for your team's workflow. This keeps discussions tidy and easy to find.

• Customizable profiles: Get a better picture of who's on your team with profiles that let everyone showcase their personality: cover images, short bios, and profile pictures.

• Pages for note-taking: Use pages as digital notes to jot down meeting minutes, proposals, ideas – whatever sparks creativity! They can be private by default or shared with just your team or specific spaces.

Under the Hood

• Frappe Framework: A full-stack batteries-included web framework.
• Frappe UI: A Vue UI library for a modern user interface built on our design system.
• Redisearch: A powerful search and indexing engine built on top of Redis.

Production setup

Managed Hosting

You can try Frappe Cloud, a simple, user-friendly and sophisticated open-source platform to host Frappe applications.

It takes care of installation, setup, upgrades, monitoring, maintenance and support of your Frappe deployments. It is a fully featured developer platform with an ability to manage and control multiple Frappe deployments.
