You can tell a lot about a person by their choice of Slack emoji. Is :thumbsup: your go to, or do you always bring the :congapartyparrot: energy?
For many teams and communities, custom Slack emoji have become an integral part of a group’s online culture, and that’s true for the Orbit team as well.
As part of our series on DevRel workflows (one about swag and another about monitoring GitHub), we created a handful of custom emoji to make the bots and alerts really pop. Shoutout to Dustin!
Here they are:
We think they’re super fun (especially StarBot and SwagBot), so we’d thought we’d make them available for the community to use in their own Slack channels.
If you’d like a little Orbit energy in your own Slack, you can download the Orbit Emoji here.
Here are the names we use to summon our custom emoji:
- orbit-chart
- orbit-starbot
- orbit-swagbot
- orbit-reach
- orbit-star-outline
- orbit-star
- orbit-syntax
- orbit-love
- orbit-fire
- orbit
