Gigbot

Git-inspired remote tech job aggregator for the command line.

Gigbot is in active development for personal use. There will be bugs!

When seeking a new remote software engineering gig, there are numerous job boards all over the web. Wouldn't it be nice to be able to pull listings from all of them and see them aggregated in one place?

Gigbot is a command line tool that scrapes job listings from various job boards across the web and allows browsing them from the command line to help you find your next gig!

For personal use only.
