Partial The reader UI, summaries, topic filtering, and commenting are vibe-codeable. Keeping hundreds of Hungarian sources flowing reliably in real time, with scrapers that break whenever sites change, is an ongoing operational burden that vibe coding alone won't handle.
What it would actually take: The stack is a feed/scraper ingestion layer (RSS plus per-site scrapers) feeding a searchable database such as Postgres with full-text search, plus LLM summarization on a schedule. The hard part is maintaining hundreds of source-specific parsers and deduplicating stories across outlets. That requires a data-engineering owner for monitoring and fixes, and possibly Hungarian-language NLP for clustering.
