[FEATURE] Improve Filtering & Search for Projects #134
Description
Feature title
Enhance Project Filtering & Search Functionality
Description
Currently, users have to manually scroll through all project cards to find relevant repositories. To improve the user experience, we need to implement a dynamic search bar and filtering system.
✅ Proposed Solution
🔍 Search Functionality:
1. Add an input box at the top for users to search projects by name.
2. Implement case-insensitive search matching.
3. Dynamically filter results as users type.
🔽 Filter by Technology:
1. Add a dropdown menu allowing users to filter by tech stack (e.g., Python, Go, Rust).
2. Show only projects matching the selected tech.
🔄 Real-time Filtering:
1. Combine search + filter results in real time.
2. Ensure performance optimization (debounce search input).
🎯 Acceptance Criteria
-
Users can type in the search bar to find relevant projects instantly.
-
The dropdown filter allows users to narrow down results based on technology.
-
The UI updates dynamically without requiring a page reload.
-
Works seamlessly on both desktop & mobile.

Motivation
Currently, users have to manually scroll through the list of projects to find what they need. As the number of projects grows, this process becomes inefficient and time-consuming. Adding a search and filter feature will significantly improve the user experience by allowing users to quickly locate projects based on keywords, technologies, or categories.
Why is this useful?
✅ Improves Accessibility – Users can find relevant projects faster.
✅ Enhances User Experience – No more manual scrolling; just type and filter.
✅ Scalability – As more projects are added, searching becomes essential.
✅ Efficiency – Saves time for users looking for specific repositories.
