intercom.io

If you wish to make use of intercom.io, include a private.py file in core.settings with your INTERCOM_APP_ID as a string. The necessary code snippet is already included in project_base.html.

We work under the philosophy that stakeholders should have access to the development and source code, and be able to participate in every level of the project - we invite comments, suggestions and contributions. See our milestones list and our open issues list for known bugs and outstanding tasks. You can also chat live with our developers and community members using the link below.
