⚙️ How It Works

This repository is a fully automated news pipeline. On every run, GitHub Actions:

1. Fetches the latest articles from seven sources: Dev.to, Hacker News, GitHub Trending, Lobste.rs, Stack Overflow, TechCrunch, and freeCodeCamp
2. Deduplicates and categorizes them across 10+ topics using keyword matching
3. Extracts cover images and computes language & category statistics
4. Rebuilds this README and appends everything to the full archive
5. Commits and pushes the result — no human intervention needed

🚀 Run it yourself

git clone https://github.com/Derrick-MUGISHA/github-activity-bot.git
cd github-activity-bot
npm install
npm start

Fork the repo, enable GitHub Actions, and you have your own self-updating news feed.
