How the radar works

Published daily, edited by me

A scheduled process prepares the entries for each category every day; I review them, edit them and add my own from the administration console.

1 · It runs every day

A scheduled task runs in the early hours and goes through the active categories.

2 · It drafts the entry

Title, summary and analysis, with the source cited and the original link always visible.

3 · It assigns the image

It takes the cover image from the source or a stock image with a free-use license.

4 · I edit and publish

From the console I approve, correct or write my own entries and articles.
