Hello! My Name is Adam. I wrote this web client for a programming class that I am in, but also because I waste too much time on HN. The goal was initially to create a client that reduced consumption, but this will most likely increase my consumption. The code is quite spaghetti as of now, but I am not sure if I will continue development. I would like to implement all the features of the HN website, along with a more modern UI. I guess the big downside is the fact that it all runs off of JS, but there is no getting around that unless I host it myself.
