Contribute

  1. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/guarani/HN-iOS-Bookmarklet-Who-is-Hiring-Search hn-bookmarklet

  2. Go to the repo: cd hn-bookmarklet

  3. Make changes to hn.js

  4. The contents of hn.js must be first prepended with javascript: before being copied to an iOS bookmark

  5. Alternatively, if you have UglifyJS installed, run the following command to take hn.js, minify it, and prepend the javascript: string, and place the result in hn.min.js:

    var=$(uglifyjs hn.js); echo "javascript:"${var/void\ /void } > hn.min.js

  6. Pull requests welcome!
