    A few months ago I shared my travel app here. Today I'm back with something that solved a real technical challenge I was facing. The problem: Parsing booking confirmation emails accurately. Built a parsing system that: - Distinguishes between connection hubs and actual destinations - Captures all segments (flights, hotels, trains) in the right order - Handles different booking site email formats - Creates complete itineraries automatically Happy to discuss more if anyone's interested :)
