Chrome: API endpoint to enhance Github Issues view

[birkjernstrom]

Core part of the Chrome Extension. Using a content script on Github Issues page(s), we should send an API request to fetch all the additional data we want to enhance the view with.

We could likely proxy the requests on this page via our API to provide results immediately upon them being requested, but... becomes much more brittle integration if we're a middleman.

Easiest (alpha version) is likely:

1. On load: Scrape the page for all issue IDs shown
2. Send an API request for all of those issue IDs
3. Showcase a "Polar spinner" for Github Issues
4. Enhance the Github Issues view once we receive the response

But let's discuss quickly as a group once we get here. There are some design considerations, i.e "flickering content" being the biggest of table content changing as we enhance etc.

Funding

• You can sponsor this specific effort via a Polar.sh pledge below
• We receive the pledge once the issue is completed & verified

What does "showcase a 'polar spinner'" mean?
