Let's try to build a simple .NET news aggregator site using Python, Hugo and a scheduled Github Action.

This repository contains the site source code. The published code can be found in this another GitHub repository:

• https://github.com/karlospn/mydotnetramblings-news-site

The site is published in the following uri:

• https://www.dotnetramblings.com

This site is an automated news aggregator. It fetches news from multiple RSS feeds, presenting them all on a single page for your convenience.

The site is automatically updated every 3 hours with the latest news from various RSS feeds.

There is also a lot of interesting .NET content in Youtube, that's why this site also contains a videos section. This section is automatically updated once every day at 07:15 AM (UTC) with the videos posted the day before.

Do you create content related to .NET? We're thrilled to welcome you!

Even if your content isn't strictly about .NET, but focuses on software development, cloud computing, AI, or any other tech-related subject, we're excited to feature your posts here!
