Hi, build another side project in my free time.

Basically gathering jobs from some top companies in the US mostly. So the jobs are directly from companies websites (not other job boards).

Its not much data, only maybe 250k jobs right now from 100+ companies.

Build it with scala/zio, scala.js/laminar and postgres 16

You can also search with quotes, also can use minus, also underscore to match any character so you can search for 'part_time'

Yeah enjoy.

I submitted a query, and then... nothing happened, just whiteness for like 10-or-so seconds. I thought it's broken, but then.. BOOOM the results came in. A loading spinner or similar could be helpful.
