Bridging Frontend and Backend Collaboration
Cross-functional projects demand tight coordination between design, content, backend logic, and frontend interactions. Sherpas centralizes activity across Git-based workflows and project management tools like Jira and ClickUp, enabling developers to track contributions in real-time and avoid redundant work.
Frontend teams can monitor pull request activity without switching tools, while backend developers can visualize task progress and sync with sprints automatically. This alignment reduces context switching and fosters smoother communication.
Visibility into Who’s Doing What (and When)
Sherpas provides powerful dashboards that show exactly what’s being worked on, which pull requests are in review, and where bottlenecks are forming. Instead of relying on manual updates, teams gain real-time insights into progress and blockers.
For teams juggling multiple environments, staging branches, or complex dependencies, this visibility ensures nothing slips through the cracks, especially when managing version control collaboratively.
Supporting Async Workflows with Automation
With remote and distributed work now the norm, Sherpas supports asynchronous collaboration through automated summaries and Slack integrations. Daily updates, PR reminders, and stale task alerts keep everyone in the loop, without needing endless check-ins.
Teams benefit from intelligent nudges and data-driven insights, leading to faster feedback loops, shorter review times, and more efficient delivery.
A Smarter Workflow for Cross-Functional Teams
From designers and content editors to backend engineers and DevOps, Sherpas brings everyone onto the same page. Its customizable rules—like PR size limits, stale PR tracking, or work-in-progress caps—help teams enforce best practices without adding manual overhead.
Whether you’re managing internal platforms, shipping SaaS features, or coordinating across squads, Sherpas gives you the confidence to scale collaboration and ship better code.
