progscrape - developer news aggregated from multiple sites

I built this site a few years back as an aggregator for sources that I check reasonably often. I bit the bullet and built an Android app for it this year as well[1] Both website [2] and Android app [3] are open-source.

progscrape - developer news aggregated from multiple sites launched on May 6, 2015 with 21 votes, #1,235 of 3,670 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 11 years on.

In plain words

Progscrape is an open-source news aggregator that pulls technology content from Hacker News, Reddit, and other programming sources. It serves developers who want a consolidated view of tech news from multiple sites. Both the website and Android app are freely available and open-source, allowing users to access curated developer news across platforms.

  • Open sourcing Harmonic, my Android Hacker News client2023 · github.com · ▲305

    Hey HN! I'm the developer of one of the most popular Android clients for HN, Harmonic for Hacker News. Over the years I have recieved many requests to open source the app which I am finally doing - sorry about taking so long :) Having been very busy working on my PhD during the last two years - Harmonic has not recieved the attention it deserves. I therefore hope that open sourcing it can give it a new lease on life. I also hope that by posting here many of the nice people who have reached out to me will notice that the app is finally open source. I'm also happy to answer questions about the…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
