"Zig with TypeScript bindings and React components" for a TUI is definitely the wildest, weirdest stack for a given job I've seen.

Without Claude code demo it would be impossible to see how it works, nicely done

It would be nice to read the articles in the terminal as well, maybe just as an markdown output.

That's a lot of deps to read HN.

Maybe your clanker can do it without.
