I was tired of constantly switching between my editor and browser for project management stuff. So I embedded the full platform (chat, sprints, files, discussions, time tracking) directly in the IDE.

Not just a task list - it's the entire project management platform in your sidebar. Zero browser tabs needed.

Main technical challenge was keeping websocket connections alive without killing IDE performance. Had to batch updates and optimize webviews heavily.

Built entirely in Laravel on the backend. Works across VS Code, Cursor, and Windsurf with one codebase.

Would love feedback from the HN community!
