## What it is
NewsNow is a self-hostable web application that aggregates real-time and trending news from multiple sources with a clean, elegant reading UI. It supports GitHub OAuth login with data sync, adaptive scraping intervals, caching, and exposes an MCP server for programmatic access.

## Use cases
- read trending news in one place
- self-host a news aggregator
- track real-time hot news from Chinese sources
- access trending news via MCP server
- deploy a news site on Cloudflare Pages or Vercel
- aggregate headlines with caching and rate-limit-friendly scraping

## When to choose
- you want an elegant, self-hosted trending news reader
- you primarily consume Chinese news sources
- you want to deploy cheaply on Cloudflare Pages, Vercel, or Docker
- you need news data exposed through an MCP server

## When to avoid
- you need English or multi-language news content today
- you need full-text article reading rather than headline aggregation
- you need offline or mobile-native apps
- you need extensive customization of sources without writing code
