A more effective way to search issues on GitHub

Issue Collab

A search tool designed to help you find open source projects

Demo & Usage

• Use the toggle switches to filter results. Optionally enter text keywords
• Click a title to open the issue on GitHub in a new tab

Background

The idea for this project comes from wanting to find cool projects on GitHub but not being satisfied with GitHub's native search.

I began searching issues during Hacktoberfest (an annual event sponsored by Digital Ocean which encourages developers to get involved with open source. Make 4 PRs in a month and get a FREE T-shirt 👕).

Local Development

To run this project for local development if you have Node.js and NPM installed follow these steps in a terminal. The app will run on port 3000.

npm install
npm start

If you don't want to install Node.js and you have Docker present on your system, then just use the Dockerfile and the script that prepares the whole application in a separate container. The app will run on port 3000.

./dev.sh
