Weekly Challenge: Build Your First Automation

🏆 Weekly Challenge: Build Your First Automation

Goal: Create an automation that fetches something from the internet and posts it somewhere.

Choose your level:

🟢 Beginner: Use Zapier or IFTTT. Connect a free RSS feed (like Hacker News) to post new articles to a Discord channel or email.

🔵 Intermediate: Use n8n or OpenClaw. Build a script that reads an RSS feed, filters for keywords, and sends a webhook to Discord with a formatted embed.

🟣 Advanced: Build a complete pipeline like Echo. RSS feed → Python script → categorize → dedup → Discord webhook + static blog rebuild.

Rules:

• Share your build in #project-showcase
• Include what you built, what tool you used, and one thing you learned
• Deadline: Sunday 23:59 SAST

Prizes:

• 🏅 Completion role
• 🏆 Featured in next week's community recap
• 💡 Your build may become a future tutorial
