Idea

This site runs itself

My own generator pulls announcements from RSS feeds every day, shortens them with AI and publishes them as brief news posts in Polish and English. I only review the results: in the admin panel I edit posts, add my own comments or hide the boring ones.

Serverless on AWS

No servers to maintain. Lambda generates content, DynamoDB stores it, SNS connects the product with its consumers, and the static site is served from S3 through CloudFront. The infrastructure lives in Terraform and deploys with a single command. Running it costs about a dollar a month.

Product and consumer

The generator is a separate product with its own API and admin panel. This site only consumes content from its database. Each language is an independent stream and new sites or channels can plug in without code changes.

Why bother

Because showing beats telling. Automation, simple architecture and cost control are how I like to work. Happy to talk details on LinkedIn.
