Developer baradev has launched the MVP for OSS Finder, a full-stack web app for discovering GitHub repositories. Built with React 19, TypeScript, Vite, and Fastify, it allows users to search by keyword, filter by language, and view repo stats. The project is now live on Vercel and Render.

The architecture intentionally separates frontend and backend for independent deployment. The backend runs on Render, the frontend on Vercel, communicating via a REST API. This structure, established from the start, allows for future scaling into microservices without disrupting the UI—a practical approach to maintainability.

Automated quality checks are enforced via GitHub Actions, running linting, type checking, and build verification on every pull request. Future plans include adding pagination, sorting options, and testing. The project demonstrates a shift from monolithic apps to a more flexible, decoupled design.
