We recently migrated from Height to Linear because of the sad news that Height will be shutting down

As a Linear newbie, would love some pro tips to become more effective with it -- anyone have recommendations on how to use it well?

GitHub integration is great 

Spend some time reading the linear guides, a little effort to learn goes a long way 

Start simple

Use cycles

Learn views- very powerful and a good way to align your team on work

𝓵𝓲𝓿𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓽𝓱𝓮 𝓮𝓷𝓭𝓵𝓮𝓼𝓼 𝓼𝓾𝓶𝓶𝓮𝓻 • building @buoy 🛟 • skeet.build • pfista.com

Also learn shortcuts and train your team to use them for consistent feature branch naming 

cmd+shift+,    copy issue url 

cmd+shift+.   copy branch name

With GitHub integration, issues are automatically tied with PRs if they use the branch name convention

finally, check out the linear mcp server from skeet.build which makes it even easier for your team to get linear data into cursor when implementing issues, or enrich linear tickets with other info from other tools
