kitze told me to do it soooo... happy to launch mergehelper.com. this is my first macOS app and it does one thing: show me a unified list of PRs and MRs that matter to me across Github and Github. It's free to try and if it solves a problem for you, you can buy it for a one-time fee of $12 started working on this last week, fully coded with Claude Code + Codex Under the hood, it's using Tauri for the app, and React for the UI. Mergehelper.com is a simple Laravel website with a tiny API to handle app-updates + github release triggers (whenever I push a new tag, GH will build + notarize the app and notify the website of the new release). Billing + license key management is handled through @polar_sh Learned quite some new stuff in the past couple of days and happy to answer any questions if you have them!
















Itโs a big red flag when a company still gives coding interviews to developers with significant open-source contributions. These companies typically donโt believe in open source, have low sense of trust, incompetent to validate contributions or are just inefficient. Join companies that take your past contributions seriously and respect it.
