I think the UX around pull requests and code reviews are extremely difficult to get right and to this day I haven't seen a platform that I'm really happy with.
There are bits and pieces in some places but none really bring stuff together.
Here a small list of things I'd like to see:
- diffs should be language aware and highlight semantic differences
- I should have a working LSP on both the old and the new version simultaneously and have decent full editor code navigation features and git history inspection available
- I want ergonomic ways to see diffs between different versions of commits
- I would like to be able to comment on anything (commit messages, inter diffs, PR description, responses, etc.)
- I want a better integration of LLM reviews than having them dump their findings in an a big PR comment
I think there is plenty or room to innovate on just the basics of PR and codereview.
