Introduction

What is Volta?

Volta is a web application with a simple goal: to help you manage your repositories and issues. It's built on top of GitHub API to provide a real-time and intuitive interface with an automated issue board out of the box. Volta also helps you reduce the overwhelming flow of notifications to focus on what matters.

Volta is available on your browser, as a desktop application or on mobile/tablet as a Progressive Web App (PWA). We recommend using our desktop application for an optimal experience.
