Show HN: Open-source job board aggregator

[sebestindragos]

Hi HN,

I built First2Apply, an open-source job board aggregator that helps users find and apply for jobs faster by pulling listings from multiple sources like LinkedIn, Indeed, Dice, and 10+ other job boards.

Why I built this:

When I was job hunting, I found it time-consuming to track jobs across multiple platforms. So I created a tool that centralizes job listings in one place and prioritizes speed — getting job alerts quickly can make a real difference in the hiring process.

How it works: - scrapes jobs from major job boards - diffs the list of new found jobs with the ones already "seen" - (optionally) filters out jobs based on user input (using ChatGPT) - sends an alert if there are any new jobs for the user to check out

First2Apply is built with Electron, Supabase, TypeScript, React, Tailwind, Shadcn. You can check out the code here: https://github.com/beastx-ro/first2apply

I’d love feedback on: - features you think would make this tool more useful - ways to improve scraping/integrations with job platforms - any other ideas or contributions you’d like to see in an open-source job aggregator

Give it a try, and let me know what you think! https://first2apply.com/

I've been using this a bit. I dig it! I think it's a great start to an app.
