>GitHub.com is deployed primarily through chatops

What is the best chatops right now ? I dont see a lot of popularity around chatops. Its most usually some version of github based triggers.

Its funny that Github themselves uses chatops. I think that's a very nice take - especially for early stage startups. Anyone else use anything like it ?

We're just starting beta, but my friend Phil and I both worked together at GitHub and are building what we hope to be a better Hubot at https://ab.bot right now.

It's missing some of the chatops stuff that is mentioned in the blog post but since we support a lot more languages than Hubot we're hoping it's a matter of time before someone in our community builds a better replacement deployment script (or we'll do it while building out sample scripts :))

(Also, hi GitHub friends!)

I'm guessing they are using Hubot (https://hubot.github.com/)

A place I was at used Hubot as well. It gets the job done, we never really ran into a fuss. Easily extensible as well.

This is correct :)
