Live Wire
A news page that refreshes itself from official feeds.
Auto-updating aggregator
What it is
A static site paired with a scheduled Cloudflare Worker. The Worker reads official RSS feeds on a cron, filters them through a tunable keyword pipeline, deduplicates into KV storage, and the site renders the result — headline, source link and date, nothing scraped, nothing republished.
What the design gives you
- Scheduled Worker with per-source health reporting and a manual refresh endpoint
- Keyword filter applied retroactively — tightening it cleans history, not just new items
- Feed sources as config with enable flags and recorded reasons for disabled ones
- Fail-soft build: if the feed is unreachable, the site ships an honest notice, not an empty page
Under the hood
- Cloudflare Worker + KV + cron triggers; JSON API consumed at build time
- Aggregation-not-appropriation: headline, link and date only, always linking out
- Zero client-side JavaScript on the feed page itself
Good for
- Launch trackers
- Industry news roundups
- Any niche with official feeds to aggregate
