Understanding Iconography in Pullflow
Iconography is a key component of Pullflow, providing visual cues that enhance the comprehensibility of status updates and actions on pull requests (PRs) directly within Slack messages. Each icon is designed to offer immediate insight into the PRs’ and checks’ statuses, streamlining the review process and reducing the need for extensive text-based communication.
| PR Status | Check-run Reactions |
|---|---|
| 🔘 Opened | ⚪️ Running |
| 🔍 Review requested | 🟡 Skipped |
| 👍🏼 Approved | 🟢 Passed |
| ✏️ Changes requested | 🔴 Failed |
| 🗑️ Closed | |
| ✅ Merged | |
| 📄 Draft | |
| 🏷 Labeled | |
| 📥 Assigned |
By using these icons, Pullflow makes it easier to scan through Slack messages for PR status at a glance, thereby supporting a smoother and more efficient workflow.
