🔍 Code Review

PRs without context create friction

When a reviewer opens your PR cold, they have to reverse-engineer your thinking — why these files, why this approach, what's the tradeoff. That process takes time and often leads to comments that could have been avoided with a 2-minute explanation.

What to cover in a code review recording

• What the PR does — the goal, not just the implementation
• The key files to look at — save reviewers from reading everything
• Any tradeoffs you made — why you chose this approach over alternatives
• What you want feedback on — be specific about where you want eyes

Faster reviews, less back-and-forth

A 3-minute walkthrough video attached to a PR reduces review cycles significantly. Reviewers spend less time confused, ask more useful questions, and can approve faster because they understand the intent.

Works for reviewing too

Video is just as useful when you're the reviewer. Instead of leaving a wall of inline comments, record your screen, walk through the code, and talk through your thoughts. The author gets much richer feedback in the same amount of time.
