we love our users

Hi there!

Welcome to Zulip!

zulip.com/hello has a nice overview of what we're up to, but here are a few tips that'll help you get the most out of it:

1. Zulip works best when it's always open, so grab our apps! (Mac, Windows, Linux, Android, iOS)
2. Keyboard shortcuts: learn about them in the Keyboard Shortcuts tab under the gear icon. (Or press '?')
3. Talking about code? Use our Markdown support to format and even syntax-highlight your messages!
   For example, typing this:

   ~~~ .py
   def fn(arg):
       print "Hello"
   ~~~

   gets you this:

   def fn(arg):
       print "Hello"

4. Got automation? Check out our integrations and API for easy integration with services like GitHub, Jenkins, Nagios, and Trac. They're super-easy to set up and make things a lot more useful.
5. Emoji. Because
