Chat to build and schedule your own personal Hacker News email digest! 🎉

This is a personal side project that wraps a newsletter digest builder in a conversational interface, letting the reader specify topics, filters, and delivery schedule through chat instead of a settings form. The novelty is the interaction model rather than the underlying capability, which is table-stakes: fetch stories, filter by topic, email on a cron. The chat-to-configure angle is genuinely friendlier for non-technical users who bounce off YAML config files. The write-up reads like a builder sharing what they shipped, which is fine, but the product is light on differentiators compared to existing digest tools like Daily.dev or custom RSS pipelines. Worth a glance if you are building a similar side project and want to see how someone stitched the pieces together, or if you specifically want a hosted personal digest with no config file. -> Best for: indie hacker looking for a weekend project reference implementation
