Politics Dashboard: A Self-Hosted, AI-Summarized News & X Feed Reader

Politics Dashboard: A Self-Hosted, AI-Summarized News & X Feed Reader I built and open-sourced a self-hosted news dashboard that aggregates political news from RSS or FreshRSS, summarizes individual articles with a configurable large language model (LLM), generates a 24-hour thematic digest, and presents X posts with per-account summaries through a self-hosted Nitter instance.

Weather Dashboard: A Self-Hosted, NWS-Grade Weather Operations Console

Weather Dashboard: A Self-Hosted, NWS-Grade Weather Operations Console Bottom line up front. I built and now open-sourced a self-hosted weather operations dashboard built around the US National Weather Service api.weather.gov and a stack of other free public sources (NOAA SPC, AviationWeather Center, NDBC, USGS, RainViewer, IEM). For fun, I also pull in APRS stations from my SDR rig. It renders active alerts with VTEC parsing and polygon overlays, NEXRAD and MRMS radar with time-machine playback, severe-weather products from SPC including ProbSevere v3 and GLM lightning, aviation METAR/TAF/AIRMET/SIGMET, marine buoys and tides, USGS earthquakes, AirNow AQI, and a 7-day NWS forecast. It speaks CAP 1.2 to other systems, fans out severe alerts to Slack/Discord/generic webhooks, and supports VAPID web push for the browser. Repository: github.com/RobertDWhite/weather-dashboard. License: MIT. Multi-arch images at ghcr.io/robertdwhite/weather-dashboard-{api,ui}. The image I run in production is the same image GitHub Actions builds from main. ...
