How this service works
Developer link aggregators and daily dev news. Trend-detection agents and newsletter automations wanting one call for 'what are developers talking about right now'
Output
A list of developer news items, each containing a headline, URL, source (e.g. ycombinator, simonwillison, theregister), and publication timestamp. Returns up to the specified limit (default 10, max 50), filtered by the requested freshness window and optional keyword query.
Example use cases
Daily dev digest newsletter automation
“Grab the top 15 developer news stories from the last 24 hours across all sources and summarize them for my morning newsletter.”
Trend detection for a specific topic
“Search for the latest developer news mentioning 'WebAssembly' from the last 3 days — I want to see what the community is saying about it.”
Monitoring Simon Willison's blog feed
“Check what Simon Willison has posted in the last 6 hours and give me a quick rundown of his latest links and commentary.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://thebotwire.com/devnews/latestWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need a single aggregated call for what developers are actively discussing across major dev-community sources like Hacker News, Simon Willison, and The Register. Ideal for trend-detection pipelines, newsletter automations, and developer community monitoring agents that need curated dev-specific content rather than general tech news.
Side effects
- No results returned if the freshness window is too narrow and no new posts exist
- Invalid 'since' format (e.g. '2hours' instead of '2h') may cause a 400 error
- Invalid 'src' enum value returns an error
- Limit exceeding 50 is rejected
- Stale or cached results if the upstream source hasn't updated recently
