I wanted to learn something about web scraping and elasticsearch so I made this little website.

It solves my need to revisit interesting stuff I read from this amazing newsletter and would otherwise not be able to find again. Maybe I'm not the only one who needs this?

There's still lots to do, but it's already usable.

I'd love to know what you think. :)

Ha, this is great - thanks for building this! I've been wanting to do more around my archive, but it is hard to find the time these days.

:D Great. Glad you like it. If you have any ideas for improvement, just ask and I'll see what I can do. This is my first real side project in a long time and I'm a litte enthusiastic about it. ^^
