Seems to be perpetually stuck on "loading...". Hug of death?

There's a couple of syntax errors, but it does eventually load. I think the whole screen is dependent on a web request completing.

Tip: try to get as much of it rendered as possible while you're waiting. Most JavaScript frameworks have the ability to manage sub-views of some sort, so you can get most of that screen in place. If you're waiting on the items to load, try greying out the search box or something?

Still not loading for you?

I have no idea if there's a backend hug of death but the search function seems to do nothing at all when I try to search. Click search.. no loading icon, no loading text, nada

me too
