Jun 21, 2016 Slack channels would fill up with chatter as people made plans for when to arrive to beat the crowds, so we built an app that makes coordinating that easier, and shows off Message Buttons. Show off your true colors by typing any six-character hex code into Slack—like #FFFF00 for Fast Company yellow. The app will put an appropriate color swatch alongside your message.
Why use keyboard shortcuts?
- They make Slack accessible for everyone.
- They increase efficiency by helping you get around Slack faster.
