Summary
Enable GitHub Discussions to give users a place for Q&A, ideas, and general conversation — keeping Issues focused on actionable bugs and features.
Steps
- Go to Repository > Settings > General > Features
- Check Discussions
- Create these categories:
- Q&A (question/answer format) — for usage questions and troubleshooting
- Ideas (open-ended) — for feature brainstorming before it becomes an issue
- Show and Tell (open-ended) — for users to share their Kite setups, configs, screenshots
- General (open-ended) — catch-all
- Update
SUPPORT.md to link to Discussions for questions
- Update
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml contact link URL (currently points to discussions but they are not enabled yet)
Why
- Reduces noise in Issues — questions and ideas do not belong in the bug tracker
- Gives the community a place to engage without creating issue clutter
- GitHub Discussions supports threaded conversations, voting, and marking answers
