See your team's code.
In real time.

A realtime visibility layer built on top of Git. Live teammate edits in the IDE, merge conflict warnings before they happen, and automatic task tracking from branches.

Traditional tools create overhead.

Jira tickets, Slack pings, and stand-up meetings exist to answer one question: "What is everyone working on?" But they pull developers out of their flow.

  • Context-switching between IDE and project tracker
  • Merge conflicts discovered too late, mid-PR review
  • Manual status updates that fall out of sync
  • No awareness of teammates editing the same file

Visibility lives in the code.

Lightning Git mirrors your repository via webhooks and layers collaborative intelligence directly into your IDE and Git workflow. No new process. No new tools.

  • See uncommitted teammate edits inline, instantly
  • Conflict warnings appear while you type, not after you push
  • Branches auto-become tasks; commits update their status
  • Your codebase stays yours. Lightning Git never owns it

Everything your team needs.

Six tightly integrated features. Zero extra process.

Live Code Overlay

See teammates' uncommitted edits directly in your IDE in real time. Each user's changes are stored in-memory and broadcast via WebSocket. Purely informational, no cross-overwriting.

Pre-Merge Conflict Detection

Detects merge conflicts before merge by diffing branches pairwise against origin/main and comparing overlapping line ranges. Updated in real time as you type.

Automatic Task Tracking

Branches automatically become trackable tasks. Commits and merges update task status without manual input. Displayed in a Kanban board: To Do → In Progress → Review → Done.

VS Code Integration

Press Ctrl+Shift+L (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Shift+L (Mac) to start a session. The status bar shows active teammates and predicted conflicts. Debounced auto-sync (1 s). Peek decorations show teammate edits inline.

Web Dashboard

Full project management in the browser. Kanban board for branch-based tasks, member management, and a live activity feed, all reflecting your Git history with no extra configuration.

Git Mirror Sync

Webhook-powered repository mirroring keeps Lightning Git in sync with every push. It never owns your code, just mirrors it locally as the data source for all overlay computations.

How it works

STEP 01

Connect a repository

Add a webhook to any Git host. Lightning Git mirrors the repo locally and starts listening for pushes.

STEP 02

Branches become tasks

Every branch is detected and registered as a task on the Kanban board automatically. Commits drive status transitions.

STEP 03

Open a file in VS Code

Press Ctrl+Shift+L (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+Shift+L (Mac). Teammate edits appear as peek decorations directly in the gutter, live as they type.

STEP 04

Conflicts warned in advance

The status bar lights up when your edits overlap with a teammate's branch. Fix it now, not during code review.
