I Built an Open Source GitHub Dashboard Because My Repositories Were Becoming Unmanageable

From dev.to•May 06•5m read time

A developer built an open source local-first GitHub dashboard called gh-dashboard to manage multiple repositories without tab-juggling. Frustrated by the lack of a cross-repo overview in GitHub's native tooling, they created a Node backend plus React frontend that uses OAuth Device Flow, caches GitHub REST and GraphQL responses, and presents a unified view of issues, PRs, stale repos, and daily digests. The tool runs entirely on the user's machine so tokens never reach a browser or third-party server. The project was open-sourced after Reddit validation showed many developers share the same pain point.
