Events

This widget is something of a "catch-all" for happenings across your apps / servers / etc.

"Events" mean anything that's worth knowing about that it happened, and usually has a "type" like "user created" or "thing failed".

These are pretty useful to keep an eye on.

Seems silly having to say this, but the primary perk of this widget type is... seeing new events.

Know when meaningful stuff happens across multiple repos & projects.

If you choose GitHub as an integration in a datasource, you'll be presented with a "type" of event to choose from.

Looks like this:

"Branch changes" are things happening in code on branches, like commits, pushes, merges, etc.

"Issues & PRs" are the GitHub issues, tasks, and pull requests for particular repos. This is a slightly different display than the official Pull Requests widget type.

Much like the other widgets, this one also lets you click on the events within the widget to quickly navigate to see more details about 'em.
