You can tailor a workspace to suit your team's needs:

Best Practices for Organizing Workspaces

Efficient workspace organization can boost productivity and collaboration. Follow these tips to keep things streamlined:

• Create Dedicated Workspaces for Projects:
  • If you manage multiple projects, create separate workspaces for each to avoid overlap and confusion.
• Use Clear and Descriptive Names:
  • Name your workspaces based on teams, projects, or clients to make them easily identifiable.
• Archive Old Workspaces:
  • Instead of deleting old workspaces, consider archiving them for reference.
• Limit Access to Relevant Users:
  • Ensure only team members working on a specific project are invited to the respective workspace.
• Set Up Default Review Settings:
  • Pre-configure repositories, branches, and integration settings to minimize repetitive setup tasks.
