The feed

The most important recent story appears as a large featured card at the top, with its category, an excerpt and how long ago it was published. The rest of the stories follow as a compact list underneath.

The feed scrolls endlessly — as you reach the bottom, more articles load automatically.

The biggest stories also show a red HIGH importance badge, and the most important recent story is the one promoted to the featured card.
