Blog post feed redesign #82

Closed ItsSim closed 6 months ago

ItsSim commented 6 months ago

Currently exploring a redesign of the blog feed, not completely convinced yet on the design.

For this redesign, a new proxy API endpoint (node.js express webserver present in /extras/fsolauncher-proxy) is required for fetching blog posts. Since featured images will now be fetched as well, that load shouldn't be put on freeso.org.

Currently, the launcher fetches the RSS feed directly from freeso.org (once on launcher startup). It will instead need to fetch from the proxy API, that will fetch on its own the latest RSS posts and their featured images every x minutes.

Completed in https://github.com/ItsSim/fsolauncher/commit/72abdff62e0b71c4fe8957b0505bcdd05bc367cf, fully functional with proxy.
