Review Summary	Shortcut is a project management tool lauded for its user-friendly interface, intuitive design, and seamless integration with popular tools like GitHub and Slack. Users appreciate its streamlined workflow, particularly compared to more complex alternatives like Jira. However, some users report performance issues, including slow load times and a memory leak that can impact laptop performance. Additionally, Shortcut's lack of a calendar view for tracking incidents and limited customization options for workflows are areas for improvement.	Not Available
