With many of their 186,000+ customers managing work and businesses via mobile, the @mondaydotcom team truly understands the need to ship rock solid Android & iOS experiences.

We spoke with @freak4pc and @eranlun about how Runway helps them do so.

@polpielladev Yeah I've always figured regression tests tend to run too slowly to be feasible as part of regular workflows, but curious to hear if that's actually the case

[Isabel Barrera @ifbarrera]

Question for my mobile folks! If you run automated regression tests, do you run them as part of an existing CI/CD workflow (let's say for example, your release candidate workflow), or on their own separate CI/CD workflow with its own triggers?

[Isabel Barrera @ifbarrera]

@polpielladev @RunwayTeam @nyswifty Great to meet you too Pol! 😃

[Isabel Barrera @ifbarrera]

@acbdev inspired me to dig up the quote on quote “disgusting” apps (😂) I made while learning iOS… and I gotta say I still love her despite all the pink

[Isabel Barrera @ifbarrera]

I’ll be at NYSwifty next week - come say hi!

[Runway @RunwayTeam]

Hey NYC (and visitors!), see you at @nyswifty in exactly one week 🛬

Come by our table to say hi to some of the Runway team & talk iOS/tooling – and keep your eyes peeled for an airplane or two 👀

Humbled to be among such inspiring female founders in the dev tools space ✨ thank you @IrinaSeng for raising awareness on this striking statistic

[Irina Seng @IrinaSeng]

As a Dev Tool founder, I was shocked to discover that out of 4700+ founders, I could only find 40 female founders. This Women's Day, let's celebrate and raise awareness by retweeting this list and tagging female founders in Dev Tools. #InternationalWomensDay #DevTools 💪👩‍💻🎉

Cognitive load is a sneaky drain on productivity, but it turns out there are things you can do to meaningfully reduce it. Check out our tips on how to decrease cognitive load for your mobile team on the Runway blog

[Runway @RunwayTeam]

Failing builds, code review, merge conflicts, store rejections… How do you manage all the noise to make sure your team stays sane & can actually get product shipped? @ifbarrera takes a look at cognitive load theory & how it can help in a mobile context.

Love this new automation we recently shipped in Runway 😍 automatically cherry-pick fixes from main to the release branch

[Runway @RunwayTeam]

✨New in Runway✨ Avoid tedious git wrangling for post-kickoff fixes with automated cherry picks: Runway will automatically grab relevant commits from any PR that contains a designated key in its title, then open a PR against the specified release branch

[Runway @RunwayTeam]

🛫 Departing next week: a live tour of Runway with @GabrielSavit, co-founder and ex-mobile engineer. Get an inside look at how we're rethinking the way teams automate and collaborate on mobile releases.
