NepaliWave solves this by aggregating topics from Nepali RSS feeds and using AI to write original, independently-voiced articles. No copy-paste — every article is written fresh with a NepaliWave editorial angle, cutting through the noise to explain what the news actually means for Nepal and Nepalis.

The stack
I built NepaliWave on Next.js 16 with TypeScript, deployed on a Raspberry Pi at home via Cloudflare Tunnel. A Python automation pipeline runs every two hours, pulling the latest headlines and generating new articles automatically.
The whole system costs almost nothing to run — the Raspberry Pi sips less than 5W idle and Cloudflare Tunnel is free. It's a good reminder that infrastructure doesn't have to be expensive to be reliable.
Where it's at now
The site is live at nepaliwave.anuprijal.com.np. It's early days but the foundation is solid — articles publish automatically every couple of hours with no manual intervention.
Next steps are integrating social media auto-posting to Facebook and X, and eventually moving to the dedicated domain nepaliwave.com.np once it's acquired. The goal is to be the most convenient, readable daily digest for Nepalis worldwide.
It's been a fun project — part journalism, part infrastructure, part AI. More updates to come as the product matures.
