Episerver Slack Community

For the last couple of years, we have been utilizing Slack as our primary communication tool. It's fast, searchable, direct, (practically) spam free and lets you effortlessly collaborate easier in or across offices without cluttering your inbox.

Not too long ago, I've started to join other slack teams/communities within my field or with my friends. What appeared to me is there currently is no Episerver Slack community. I've seen several other targeted at other CMS's, like SiteCore, Drupal etc., but not Episerver, which somewhat surprises me considering the huge effort Episerver has put into building a community. Ever since I started working with the Episerver platform, I've always thought that the community was really great. They have frequent meetups all over the world, Blogs, the world.episerver.com portal with the forum and support pages, the EMVP initiative to encourage the Episerver community, Episerver Ascends, the recently started Episerver Coders webinars and other sales and/or dev related events.

In our internal Slack group, we do have #episerver channels where anyone can ask the MW epi developers random Q/A, which is not only a great brain-trust to quickly tap into, but also a simple way to help junior developers to ramp up quickly. I don't mean to devalue the dev-to-dev forum on world.episerver.com, but imagine the vast amount of knowledge and experience we could gather if we get some, or even most, of the distinguished Episerver minds together in a tool that I believe many of us are already using. It's a natural step and will make the Episerver community become even closer!

To kick this off I've started both the Episerver slack community, set up a dedicated website for easy (and automated) registration, created a bunch of more or less obvious channels/topics related to Episerver related products/features.

It is totally free, non-exclusive and not affiliated with the company Episerver.
