                               HN-text

 

A fast, easy-to-use and distraction-free Hacker News terminal client.

          [335884534-339fe90f-29e8-4e58-b185-dfa9ce86464d]

Motivations:

 

  * Easy to use (arrow keys or hjkl navigation should be enough for
    the client to be fully usable)
  * Distraction Free: articles, and comments are converted to simple
    readable text.
  * Fast Navigation and Responsivity

Current Features / Screenshots

 

  * Navigation and opening pages (text-version): -||- arrow keys (or
    hjkl) will navigate from the HN Frontpage - Comments Page -
    Article's Text and back.
  * Open article in default's browser (SPACE key), Comment page ('c'
    key).
  * Append "best" as argument if you want to see Hacker News Best
    page, instead of the default frontpage.
