My experience with Zulip

In short, it has been a fantastic experience, nothing short of an adventure; I learned a lot, mostly during the code and product design reviews process, such as how to write cleaner and more readable code, how to implement UI/UX in a more user-friendly way, seeing members of the Zulip community communicating and discussing helped to improve my communication; Zulip is a very active community that has enabled me to process my work in an unstoppable manner.
