# Obsidian Hacker News 📰
Naming something "Obsidian xyz" is reserved for first party products we create, please change this header.

"description": "View Top Hacker News Stories Directly and Easily",
This should use sentence case.

return "Latest Posts", 'View Latest Posts', 'Read More'
Use sentence case in UI

'View Latest Posts'
This should include some indication that it's referring to HackerNews.

const response = await fetch('https://hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/topstories.json?print=pretty'), const response = await fetch(https://hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/item/${id}.json?print=pretty)
Use the requestUrl function from the Obsidian API instead, it will handle some things like CORS automatically.
