01 / CONTEXT
The problem to solve
Relevant cloud and data engineering updates arrive across many publishers and formats, making it easy to lose the connection between news and ongoing projects.
02 / ENGINEERING
From need to system
- Aggregate public publisher feeds into a focused reading environment.
- Support project watchlists, topic filtering, source health and briefing workflows.
- Keep local research notes and source links available for follow-up.
- Document a deployment approach with tests and optional access protection.
03 / DESIGN DECISION
A meaningful choice
Favor attributed source material and deterministic signals over unsupported AI-generated assertions.
04 / EVIDENCE AND LIMITATIONS
What is actually documented
The private README documents the application, CI tests, feed handling and Vercel deployment configuration. Live service uptime and external user adoption have not been verified.
05 / NEXT VALIDATIONS
How I would strengthen the proof
- Measure source availability and feed freshness.
- Add clearer failure-state reporting.
- Publish a safe video tour.
These are planned validation steps, not already measured results.
