Readwise Feed

Readwise Feed is an experimental passive social media platform that showcases a number of users' reading activity and interests in a single feed via syncing their activity from Readwise.

It is built with Next.js, Prisma, and Vercel Postgres.

How it works

There are two kinds of activity on Readwise: highlights and bookmarking (via the Reader app).

The app fetches the latest highlights and bookmarks from Readwise's API and stores them in a Postgres database. It then fetches the latest highlights and bookmarks from the database and displays them in a feed.

Every 30 minutes, the app syncs the latest highlights and bookmarks from Readwise's API.

The feed works for books, articles, Tweets, podcasts, etc. – anything that can be added to Readwise.
