Challenges Faced
- Handling GitHub API rate limiting — needed to implement caching strategies to avoid hitting the limit.
- Building pagination that works correctly when switching between open and closed issue filters.
- Managing async state cleanly while keeping the UI responsive during data fetches.
🚀
Future Improvements
- Add OAuth authentication to raise the API rate limit from 60 to 5000 requests/hour.
- Allow users to search any GitHub repo by entering username and repo name dynamically.
- Add label and assignee filtering for more granular issue browsing.
