The listing page renders each\npost as an `article.post-card` containing:\n\n- `p.post-date` — e.g. `3 August 2026`\n- `h2 > a` — post title and link (`/slug/`)\n- `p.post-excerpt` — excerpt text used as the item description\n\nThe scraper uses Cheerio to parse these into structured entries and upserts\nthem into SQLite keyed by slug. Note: the listing page loads older posts via\nJS, so only the server-rendered cards on the initial page are captured.\n\n## Not affiliated with
