Giistr – Search, filter and help on GitHub issues

[arusahni]

This is a great idea, but I'm having a really hard time reading the page: The label filters are low-contrast, the project names are separated enough from their issues that it makes scanning the homepage difficult, and the bright blue on pure white bg actually hurts my eyes. I'm not necessarily advocating for a night mode, but definitely some more contrast and visual grouping.

I’ll do my usual plug and mention that Chrome DevTools (which I write the docs for) can help with contrast ratio (CR).

Inspect CR of a single node with color picker: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2018/01/devtools#c...

Run an audit and check the accessibility category to find all nodes with insufficient CR: https://developers.google.com/web/tools/lighthouse/#devtools

My problem is the opposite: there is so much project I could contribute to, but there is very little time to do so.

[azhenley]

Exactly. Although, maybe this tool will help attract other people to my projects?

Couldnt get it to load but it would be nice if it was not just limited to github. I have a few issues on my project on gitlab labeled good first issue.

[brennebeck]

Out of curiosity, is that a common label? The site isn’t great on mobile, so I’m unsure if that’s in the integration or just an example you gave.

There was some issues with AWS cloudfront not handling SPA correctly which should be fixed now

This is great but I think there is another GitHub search issue that needs to be addressed, perhaps by a third party because GitHub doesn't seem to perceive it as a priority.

And that is deduplication of identical assets matching with my search terms. I should be able to at the very least check a box and have files with the same checksum be deduped from results.

Unfortunately, the layout is broken on my phone. Great idea though!

I'm unable to see anything at all even after enabling scripts/xhr in uMatrix. Usually disabling tracking protection and fingerprinting in Firefox would fix this, but as far as I'm concerned, the site is broken.

What is this site's USP that distinguishes it from https://www.codetriage.com/?

[marviel]

Long term, it would be interesting to build an ML system that could suggest different projects for you to work on, based on your GitHub repos, stars, LinkedIn, etc.

I thought my screen was cracked for a second....

[J-Kuhn]

Doesn't work for me. I have CraftBukket stared, and that repo was taken down by a DCMA request.

Now the site is broken for me.

[mecowojo]

Not working, it says limited to 5000 requests.
