Remote Visits
Remote Visits is a methodology for conducting software development meetings, such as code reviews, pair programming, or technical discussions, entirely online using digital collaboration tools. It enables geographically distributed teams to work together effectively without physical presence, leveraging video conferencing, screen sharing, and real-time editing platforms. This approach supports agile practices, remote work, and global collaboration by facilitating synchronous communication and problem-solving.
Developers should learn and use Remote Visits to enhance team productivity in distributed or hybrid work environments, especially for tasks requiring immediate feedback or collaborative debugging. It is particularly valuable for remote-first companies, open-source projects with global contributors, and teams adopting agile methodologies like Scrum or Kanban, as it reduces travel costs and time while maintaining engagement. Use cases include conducting virtual stand-ups, code walkthroughs with remote peers, or onboarding new team members across different locations.
