A few months back, I really got into reading tech blogs. So I thought, wouldn't it be nice to have a script that gives you the latest blog posts of big tech companies? Of course, some existing websites let you pick specific blogs and have the entries shown to you in a dashboard. However, the selfish bastard that I am, I wanted something of my own, hence, this!
This project is written using Golang. I use RSS feeds of tech blogs but sometimes some scraping is done on the side to get images.
Currently, the following tech blogs are included:
Of course, merge requests are highly appreciated since I will spend little time extending this list.
Currently, the entries have these fields:
- Blog
- Title
- Link
- Time
- Tags
- Summary
- Images
This project was written for deriving data to be served in a scenario where the entries are listed with a summary and an image.
So the images are all downloaded locally and their paths are stored in the Images
field.
Also, a body
field IS NOT PRESENT since I intended the actual reading to happen in the original source. However, this is not written in stone and I might change it in the future.
