Ask HN: GitHub User Permissions on Mobile?

On HN

Although Github seems to be neglecting their mobile app, user permissions should be quite essential to be managed on the mobile devices.

Every time a new person joins an organization, is it really needed to navigate to the desktop website to add it there?

Are there any better solutions out there? I find it frustrating to be required in using the desktop app for these basic operations.

Thank you

I feel like there's a deeper underlying issue if you're doing user onboarding/offboarding manually via a specific service UI.

I'd assume most organizations should be automating this, either by using SSO and Github Enterprise (or other SSO-supporting code forge of choice) or at the very least automating user permissions via Github's API, backing it by whatever your org's source of truth is.
