An open source NativePHP menu bar application for MacOS, providing instant notifications when new jobs are posted on LaraJobs.
LaraJobs Desktop is a convenient way to stay updated with the latest job postings from LaraJobs. The application sits in your menu bar, providing non-intrusive notifications and a quick overview of new job opportunities, ensuring you never miss out on your dream job.
- Get notified about new job postings
- View list of most recent job postings
- Quick links to submit postings or search for Laravel Consultants
- Global hotkey to open the app (default:
CmdOrCtrl+Shift+J) - Send batched notifications, just one, or an explicit "No new jobs" depending on the number of new jobs identified.
We have big plans for LaraJobs Desktop! Here are some features we're considering for future releases:
- (WIP) - Ability to filter jobs by keyword, location, etc (see https://github.com/LukeTowers/larajobs-desktop/tree/wip/filtering-support)
- Watch jobs functionality to keep track of jobs.
- Click on a notification to see quick job details, with an option to go to the site.
- Save job application details for easy reviewing later and to reduce effort required when applying to new jobs.
- Track application status and write notes.
- Backup / restore of settings.
- Show timezone difference to current location.
The LaraJobs Desktop application currently only supports MacOS. You will also need PHP, Composer, Node, & Yarn installed on your system. Recommended to use Laravel Herd and then install yarn via Homebrew (brew install yarn).
- Download the project (
git clone [email protected]:LukeTowers/larajobs-desktop.git larajobs-desktop - Run
cd larajobs-desktop && composer install && npm install && npm run build - Run
cp .env.example .env - Run
php artisan key:generate - Run
php artisan native:serve
Future Plans:
- Fix publishing / building - currently the builds produced by
native:buildornative:publishdon't actually register theMenuBarfor some reason. - Automate building releases on publishing new tags through Github actions
- Add support for preferences (i.e. filtering, refresh frequency, etc)
- Ability to explicitly hide jobs
Use LaraJobs Desktop to stay informed about new jobs.
Please make sure that notifications are enabled for the app. When running php artisan native:serve notifications are sent from the "Electron" app.
