What Gmail did for email, Octobox does for GitHub notifications: an ephemeral, unmanageable stream becomes an inbox you can actually triage. GitHub marks notifications read the moment you glance at them and lets old ones vanish days later; heavy maintainers end up building elaborate Gmail filter systems just to cope. Octobox - a Ruby on Rails app over PostgreSQL - syncs your notifications into a persistent inbox with an explicit archived state: mark a thread done, and if the issue or PR sees new activity, it pops back automatically, so nothing silently falls through. Triage is keyboard-driven with Gmail-style shortcuts (j/k to navigate, e to archive, m to mute, s to star), and multi-select clears noisy repositories in bulk. Filtering is where it earns its keep: slice by repository, organization, type, action, state, reason, CI status, labels, author, assignee, or bot origin, combine prefix search filters, and pin favorite searches to the sidebar. The optional GitHub App enriches entries with live PR/CI status and labels so you can decide without clicking through. Auto-archive rules clear merged PRs and closed issues; muting and snoozing silence the rest. A REST API supports integrations. Self-hosting keeps your notification metadata - a map of everything you work on - on your own server.

Editors can update a static website without learning Git, because Pages CMS puts a visual editor on top of the repository itself. A single .pages.yml file defines what is editable: collections of Markdown files that share a schema, standalone files such as site settings, and nested groups that organize the sidebar. Fields cover strings, rich text, code, dates, numbers, booleans, selects, images, files, references, objects, and repeatable blocks, with front matter stored as YAML, JSON, or TOML. Plain text files like robots.txt open in a raw editor, redirect files in a code editor, and CSV files as an editable datagrid. Collection lists can be searched, sorted, and shown flat or as a folder tree. The media manager supports drag-and-drop uploads, multi-file selection, allowed extensions, and safe or random renaming. People without GitHub accounts join through email invitations and edit content and media, with their saves committed through the GitHub App. Custom action buttons dispatch GitHub Actions workflows after a confirmation dialog or input form, so one click can rebuild a preview or deploy the site. Commit message templates and a choice of app or user commit identity shape how each save appears in Git history. The responsive interface works on mobile screens, and suits Jekyll, Hugo, Astro, Next.js, Eleventy, VuePress, and similar site generators.
