Motivation

For all the avid Medium readers out there like me, who reads starred Medium articles in Incognito mode.

But copy pasting the URL and viewing it in Incognito mode becomes tedious, so decided to automate it.

Also wanted to learn Scrapy and Share Target API for PWAs.


Demo

cd scraper
scrapyrt -p <port-number>
