Hi @niroshnr, thanks for checking us out. To answer your question, there are multiple aspects of it: Problem 1: Developers avoid reviewing PRs: We have observed that, due to high volume and low ownership, people tend to avoid reviewing pull requests. So developers are often seen messaging and requesting other devs to review their pull requests. Using Vibinex, each developer can see which pull requests concern them, and which parts of it they have ownership of. So the workload is reduced via the distribution of work, which would lead to more devs reviewing more pull requests in general. Problem 2: Code regression: due to the volume of PRs getting merged, many times work of a developer gets overwritten while merging conflicts, which the code owner might not always be able to capture. This generally causes communication problems between the dev team and external stakeholders and sometimes it can lead to the reversal of a fix. If every dev takes responsibility for the code they have written, this will lead to a lot of saved time as well as better performance of the code in production. Problem 3: Low code awareness: We have observed that developers are only aware of the module that they have actively contributed to, and it takes them more ramp-up time to be able to contribute to a new part of the software. By being exposed to more pull requests, we believe that the general awareness of all the developers in a team about their own codebase shall increase. Leading to lesser mistakes in planning and greater alignment during execution. Let me know if you disagree with any of these. I'd be happy to learn about your views on improving the dev experience.
