Visit the live demo or open index.html locally in your browser. No installation or build process required!
You can specify repositories via URL for easy sharing:
?repos=owner/repo1,owner/repo2(comma-separated)?repos=owner/repo1|owner/repo2(pipe-separated)
Examples:
- Multiple repos:
https://hodpub.github.io/github-issues-tracker/?repos=hodpub/coriolis-tgd,hodpub/invincible,fvtt-fria-ligan/vaesen-foundry-vtt - Single repo:
https://hodpub.github.io/github-issues-tracker/?repos=hodpub/invincible
The URL updates automatically when you load repositories, making it easy to bookmark or share specific configurations.
By Repository (index.html): Each repository gets its own swimlane showing all its issues and PRs together.
By Type (by-type.html): Issues and PRs are grouped across all repositories by type (PRs, Bugs, Features, Tasks, Other).
For higher rate limits (5000 requests/hour instead of 60) or to see issues from private repositories, provide a GitHub Personal Access Token with:
public_reposcope for public repositoriesreposcope for private repositories
🔒 Privacy Note: Your token is stored only in your browser's localStorage and never sent to any server. All API calls go directly from your browser to GitHub.
This app is 100% client-side - there is no backend server:
- ✅ No data collection: We don't collect, store, or transmit any of your data
- ✅ No tracking: No analytics, no cookies, no third-party scripts
- ✅ Local storage only: Your GitHub token and cached data stay in your browser's localStorage
- ✅ Direct API calls: All requests go directly from your browser to GitHub's API
- ✅ Open source: Full source code available for inspection
- ✅ No accounts: No sign-up, no login, no personal information required
Your privacy is protected because the app runs entirely in your browser. When you close the tab, nothing persists except the localStorage cache (which you can clear at any time).
The app automatically caches repository data for 1 hour in your browser's localStorage to:
- Reduce GitHub API calls
- Stay within rate limits (60 requests/hour without token, 5000 with token)
- Speed up repeated page loads
- Work offline with recently loaded data
Cache Controls:
- Force refresh checkbox: Ignore cache and fetch fresh data
- Clear Cache button: Manually clear all cached data
- Cache status panel: Shows per-repository cache age and expiration time (click to expand/collapse)
- Pure vanilla JavaScript - No frameworks, no dependencies, no build step
- Modern ES6 modules - Clean, maintainable code structure
- Responsive CSS - Mobile-friendly design with flexbox
- localStorage API - Client-side caching for performance
- GitHub REST API v3 - Direct integration with GitHub
- Markdown rendering - Preserves HTML in issue bodies and comments
Works in all modern browsers that support:
- ES6 modules
- localStorage
- Fetch API
- CSS Flexbox

Important
As a side project rather than our core product focus, this project was developed with AI assistance (GitHub Copilot) to enable rapid iteration and prototyping. We do not use AI to create our Foundry systems and modules, following the request from Foundry LLC. This is a side project to facilitate working with our partners and clients to view issues and PRs from several repositories at the same time.
