What this will do
- Fetch an article URL
- Strip junk and isolate the story body
- Handle failures clearly instead of pretending
- Improve over time as weird sites appear
Paste a news or article URL and get back just the readable story text. The fancy extraction bits are still being wired up, but the front door is here.
Phase 1 is live: easy article pages should extract now. Weird sites will still teach us things the hard way.
Frontend: alive
Backend API: next step
Public host target: jonathanhays.ai
UI scaffold is live. Once the extractor endpoint is connected, the article text will show up here.
