Render the #1 Top Story as an Apple-News-style hero card (flat surface, 4pt stripe, 24pt headline, summary, sources, prominent score). Prettify category labels (slug -> Title Case, with AI/US/Formula 1 special-cases) across rows, hero, and detail. Per Emil's framework, no row entrance/press motion on a constantly-scrolled surface — invest in hierarchy and defaults instead. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Jarvis (iOS)
A SwiftUI iOS client for a self-hosted RSS news-correlation platform. It shows stories ranked by a server-computed signal score, caches full articles for offline reading, and receives live updates over WebSocket.
This repo is the iOS app only. The backend (RSS ingest, clustering, scoring, REST + WebSocket) is a separate service — see
docs/backend/for the build/handoff spec andAPI/contract.mdfor the wire contract.
Architecture
- REST on launch → WebSocket for live updates. The server computes signal scores; the app only renders them.
- Offline-first via SwiftData (
CachedStory,CachedArticle). - No auth — local network / self-hosted (reach it over LAN or Tailscale).
- Data flows through
StoryStore/ dedicated view-models; views never call the API directly.

Build & run
brew install xcodegen # once
xcodegen generate # produces Jarvis.xcodeproj
open Jarvis.xcodeproj # ⌘R in Xcode, or:
xcodebuild -project Jarvis.xcodeproj -scheme Jarvis \
-sdk iphonesimulator -destination 'platform=iOS Simulator,name=iPhone 17' build
Connecting to a backend
On first launch, enter the server as host:port (the app prepends http:// and
ws://), e.g. 10.10.1.70:8098. Remote access via Tailscale is configured in the
in-app Connectivity → Remote Access card; the app auto-selects the LAN address when
it's reachable and the Tailscale address when away.
CI
GitHub Actions builds a matrix of macOS runners × Debug/Release on every push and PR —
see .github/workflows/ci.yml.
Status
Frontend complete and verified against a live backend (signal feed, story detail,
article reader, feed manager, connectivity). Open work is tracked in
Issues / docs/BACKLOG.md.
