  • Yet another 'read it later' web app

    Kind of. In the early stages of development, I was using mozilla/readability in Node.js, but I wanted to implement as many parts of it as possible in Rust, so I searched for such a crate. However, none of the crates worked as well as mozilla's crate, so I created my own readability-like module, based on an example I found at nipper crate. I added and modified various things to make it conform to mozilla's implementation.
