GitHub Canvas Monitor
A spatial monitoring wall for active GitHub repositories.
What it is
GitHub Canvas Monitor replaces a linear repository list with a zoomable wall of movable project tiles. Each tile surfaces recent commits, pull requests, issues, activity signals, and README context so a large body of work can be scanned and arranged visually.
The React application uses tldraw for the infinite canvas, TanStack Query for refresh and caching, and a TypeScript and Express service for GitHub data. Public repositories load without sign-in, while the canvas layout and selected repositories persist locally in the browser.
