Link: http://bit.ly/2F3t6dl Hello all, I wanted a tool to query against and save job searches and hide irrelevant ones, so I built it. Thought I'd share. Built on the awesome SvelteJS ( https://svelte.dev/ ) framework and equally awesome Sapper ( http://bit.ly/2ZZ6J1r ) deploy platform. The app pulls posts from user `whoishiring` ( http://bit.ly/1wFarHf ) on Hacker News, and provides useful tools for sorting and saving settings / filters to localStorage. Click on the “Home” link to see a list of former posts. The project is open sourced: http://bit.ly/2ZfsKrF . Pull requests and recommended improvements welcome. Side note, looking for fulltime work. If you want me to build something in SvelteJS, for example, I'm a contributor. Feel free to hit me up over here: https://arxpoetica.com/ . (Don't litter this HN post.) ## Caveats. Here be dragons, traveler, be ye warned. * This is definitely a WIP, and has its share of problems. * It uses pretty eager searching against what's essentially text-based querying, so there's a lot of problems on filter / query, such as word boundary searching, etc. So, for example, if you're a Go programmer, trying to query against that term with this setup, good luck. Likewise, “Java” will return all “JavaScript” entries, so that's also really helpful. Sorry for that. I plan on improving it, however, for this to really be useful... * For this to really be a robust query engine, the HN API job listings would actually need some improvements. It'd be nice to have actual tagged return posts, for example. I think this would require some sort of form submission instead of just plain text submission on the jobs feed, but that would be an undertaking from HN's part.
