What it is
GeeksPulse is a developer news reader. It gathers 51 hand-picked RSS feeds, from Hacker News and Lobsters to Krebs on Security, the GitHub Blog and language blogs, and shows them newest first in a calm, editorial layout. No doomscrolling required.
Topics: general, security, AI, Python, JavaScript, Java, DevOps, open source, Rust, Go and architecture.
Highlights
- New since your last visit. Stories you haven't seen yet are marked New.
- AI summaries on demand. Pre-cached snippets, with a local Ollama fallback.
- Light and dark themes. Follows your OS by default, with no flash on load.
- Shareable views.
?q=search,?topic=and?source=filters are plain URLs. - Keyboard shortcuts.
/search,j/knavigate,oopen,bsave,?for help. - Accessible. WCAG AA contrast in both themes, focus-trapped dialogs and reduced-motion support.
Under the hood
A scheduled Node.js pipeline fetches every feed, normalises it and writes static JSON. The site itself is vanilla HTML, CSS and JavaScript built with Vite, and it's tested with Vitest and Playwright. The same pipeline later became the engine behind GameBeeper.
