Noah, a general code of conduct is a great idea, even if nothing other than 
to point at if a sensitive topic begins to get heated. Great job bud.

I tend to have the same opinion of Slack (we use it in house). Slack is an 
indispensable collaboration tool, but it makes a less than perfect message 
board - everything being so ephemeral. I think this is why most communities 
tend to have both. They're both solid tools for their intended usage.

Keep it up!
