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.
- Serve the public application through a Netlify Function and a minimal static asset bundle.
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 repository contains the feed parser, tests and Netlify deployment configuration. A public Netlify deployment is live; source availability and external adoption are not measured.
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.
