  I built something similear few days back to learn about Cloudflare workers. It can be used as API if `Content-Type` of request is `application.json` https://github.com/tuananh/reader https://github.com/tuananh/reader

    I forgot about Mozilla's release of Readability. It took them a while after they initially promised to release it. What's your experience been like with their parser? Took a look at your code - very practical.
