TIL #1 Posting to DPI Dev News

  1. Add profile page link to the assignment and let the background worker (BW) collect the posts
  2. Open https://dev.to/
  3. 'Create Post' in the upper right hand corner
  4. Get typing!
  5. Publish
  6. Revisit post to make edits if needed

It was a bit strange to not see a 'Create Post' button on https://news.dpi.dev/ , but at the very least I get it now! It's cool that there is a BW able to fetch the new posts. I am a bit curious, is the BW an actual person manually retrieving these posts, or is a bot that was written using code (and if the latter, what code was used to do it?)?
