hnsubstacks is a filtered view of Hacker News that shows only stories linking to Substack publications. It lets readers discover quality independent blogs and newsletters that have gained traction on HN, organized by hot, new, and best rankings. The site also accepts submissions for Substacks on custom domains.
The creator built this using HN's public Algolia API with a CloudFlare worker that fetches and ranks stories every 10 minutes, storing results in a KV store. The frontend is a static Svelte 5 site. According to the maker, the majority of the code was written by Claude and Gemini through chat-based interactions.
