How we work
|
||
</h1>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<strong>Open source.</strong> The Zulip software is 100% free and
|
||
open source. We're <a href="/team/">an open-source project</a> first,
|
||
and we’re building a sustainable business as a means to support the
|
||
project's growth and long-term future. We provide the same open-source
|
||
code to our largest customers as to anyone with <code>git clone</code>.
|
||
We get paid by enterprises for support, and by smaller companies using
|
||
our rapidly-growing hosted service.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<strong>Open project.</strong> The Zulip project is one where people
|
||
really do show up through the Internet and start making real changes.
|
||
That doesn’t happen by accident; it takes work and thoughtfulness. Most
|
||
of us work remotely, and we discuss our code and our plans in public, in
|
||
writing, primarily asynchronously, using Zulip and GitHub.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<strong>Inclusive community.</strong> The Zulip community is made up of a
|
||
mixture of volunteers and professionals from all walks of life. Diversity is
|
||
one of our strengths, and we strive to be a community that welcomes and
|
||
supports people of all backgrounds and identities from anywhere in the world.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<strong>Globally distributed.</strong> Our company is
|
||
headquartered in San Francisco, CA, but like our community,
|
||
we work from around the world. Our roles
|
||
are open to all applicants without regard for location.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
<strong>Maintainable software.</strong> Great
|
||
software over time depends on a team’s shared
|
||
understanding of a system and how to change it, as
|
||
much as on the code itself. Beyond writing our
|
||
code so it works today, we put equal effort into
|
||
writing code, tests, comments, commit history,
|
||
and <a href="https://zulip.readthedocs.io/en/latest/">documentation</a>
|
||
clearly, to share with each other and future
|
||
contributors our understanding of how and why it
|
||
works, so we can build on it tomorrow.

What we're building
|
||
</h1>
|
||
<p>
|
||
People working together need to communicate with their teammates, and they
|
||
also need to tune out the conversation to get work done. Teams tired of
|
||
wasting time in meetings move discussion to email; tired of waiting all
|
||
day for email replies, move to a team chat like Slack or IRC; and then
|
||
team chat becomes an always-on meeting, leaving people constantly
|
||
distracted, missing out on important conversations, or both.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>
|
||
Zulip is reinventing chat so teams can accomplish more together. We've
|
||
created a place where a conversation can shift seamlessly from the
|
||
immediacy of chat to the reply-whenever efficiency of email, and back;
|
||
where you can participate in the conversations that matter to you and
|
||
efficiently tune out the rest, no matter whether you're there in real
|
||
time, coming online after a morning hard at work, or returning from a
|
||
vacation away from it.
