Launch the app and sign in to lewagon-alumni organization.

Make sure you upload a profile picture :point_down:

The idea is that you'll have Slack open all day, so that you can share useful links / ask for help / decide where to go to lunch / etc.

To ensure that everything is working fine for video calls, let's test your camera and microphone:

  • Open the Slack app
  • Click your profile picture in the top right.
  • Select Preferences from the menu.
  • Click Audio & video in the left-side column.
  • Below Troubleshooting, click Run an audio, video and screensharing test. The test will open in a new window.
  • Check that your preferred speaker, microphone and camera devices appear in the drop-down menus, then click Start test.

:heavy_check_mark: When the test is finished, you should see green "Succeed" messages at least for your microphone and camera. :+1:

:x: If not, contact a teacher.

You can also install Slack app on your phone and sign in lewagon-alumni!
