Include Universal Summarizer Summary in SmallWeb

rob

It would be interesting to include a Summary from the Universal Summarizer for each post, if not in the UI then at least in the RSS json. This would be useful to readers/consumers, but maybe also to original authors, and even as a showcase of the ability of the Universal Summarizer. It would also save me £$ in API costs :-)

I oftentimes just copy the URL into the summarizer and see if it's worth a read to me, before diving in a lengthy blog post. Having this integrated (for paying users) would be nice.

@Vlad I have a branch where I have added a "Summarize" button which was fairly easy to do thanks to the simple URL structure of the Universal Summarizer.

The only issue is that there is not much room in the UI on desktop mode, and no room at all on mobile so the user interface starts to fall apart

I could submit a PR if you are happy with the UI issues, but if you are understandably not then there is going to have to be some work done to rework the UI.

For those who are able to/interested in running this patch locally you can find my branch at https://github.com/CarwynNelson/smallweb/tree/feat/universal-summariser

Attached are some screenshots of what it currently looks like

CarwynNelson Does it just open the url in new tab with the summarizer?

CarwynNelson

Vlad It does, yes. It seemed like the simplest way to achieve this, and it also ensures that only paying users are using it.

CarwynNelson Not all Small Web users are Kagi users so I am reluctant to place this in the main UI. Everything needs to work for someone just visiting. Perhaps an item in Share menu would be more like it? Accepting MR for this 🙂
