Introduction
Jobsort is for software developers, testers, and designers who are dissatisfied with the process of finding a job. Our product is a job board that connects passive candidates with startups and enterprises. Unlike other job sites, we give back 100% of profits to non-profit organizations that teach kids how to code.

- Web accessibility. We strive to make Jobsort accessible for everyone.
- Web performance. We use state of the art algorithms and technologies to speed up Jobsort.
Technical Details
- How we measure performance. We use Sentry to measure page loads which collects metadata such as connection type, device memory, browser name, etc. We use these data to understand performance bottlenecks and to speed up Jobsort.
- How we track errors. We use Sentry to catch and track JavaScript errors. Stack traces are collected part of the error reporting process so we can debug the issues.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
- Why do results use zero-based numbering? Because array indexing starts at zero and this website was built by developers for developers.
- What frontend technologies does Jobsort use? Jobsort is built on top of the amazing work of others who contributed to Next, React, and Tailwind. The website is hosted on Cloudflare and the CI/CD pipeline runs out of Gitlab.
