In Zulip, streams determine who gets a message. Topics tell you what the
|
|
message is about.
|
|
|
|
Topics are light-weight subjects, very similar to the subject line of an email.
|
|
Like in email or a forum, messages about the same topic are shown together as a
|
|
conversational thread. Here is what it looks like in Zulip.

Topics are one of the most wonderful aspects of using Zulip:
|
|
|
|
* Lots of conversations can happen in the same stream at the same time, each in
|
|
its own topic. You never have to worry about interrupting — each
|
|
conversation has its own space.
|
|
* Conversations can last many hours or days, letting everyone respond in their
|
|
own time. Don't worry about replying long after a message is sent —
|
|
everyone will see your reply in context.
