Show HN: Engineering.fyi – Search across tech engineering blogs in one place

https://engineering.fyi/
282•indiehackerman•11h ago
I built a search engine for engineering blogs because I was tired of manually checking individual company blogs to find real-world production examples.

The problem: When learning a new technology, the best insights often come from how companies like Google, Meta, or Stripe actually implement it in production. But these gems are scattered across dozens of separate engineering blogs with no way to search across them.

What I built: Engineering.fyi indexes engineering blogs from ~15 companies (Google, Meta, OpenAI, Anthropic, Stripe, Uber, etc.) and makes them searchable in one place. You can filter by topic, difficulty level, and whether articles include code samples.

Technical details: - Built with Next.js, SQLite, DrizzleORM - Custom scrapers for each blog (they're all frustratingly different) - Basic tagging system using content matching (still improving this)

Current status: Core search is working. Adding new blogs weekly as I index them.

Next features (based on early feedback): - AI summaries for quick article previews - Weekly digest of trending engineering insights - Save/bookmark articles (considering whether to add accounts)

Interesting challenges: - Each blog requires custom parsing logic (no standard format) - Building an accurate tagging system is harder than expected – started with exact matching but exploring better approaches

I'd love feedback on: - Which company engineering blogs you'd find most valuable to include - Whether AI summaries would actually be useful or just noise - How you currently discover engineering articles from these companies

The performance is really slow on my phone - iPhone XR. Even selecting filters takes away lot of time.

nice concept. fyi, search feature doesn’t seem to work
indiehackerman•10h ago
Thanks for your support! Search should be fixed now
dbgrman•11h ago
none of the filters seem to work for me. Good concept. Wish it wasn't in the done-to-death vibe coding UI.
indiehackerman•9h ago
Thanks for the feedback! Have made fixes to the filters so please try again
coldtrait•9h ago
What is a more standard UI that doesn't scream vibe coded?
__natty__•11h ago
I have so many of tech blogs in my bookmarks. And I open them maybe once per month. How often do you read these blogs?
indiehackerman•9h ago
I read them especially when I'm picking up a new task at my job with new technologies
dwedge•11h ago
I love this idea. Like others mentioned the cloudflare is annoying and search is way too slow, but as a concept I like it. Make it faster and I can see myself using this every week
indiehackerman•10h ago
Thanks for the feedback! Search should be better now
netloks9599•5h ago
I think you might want to add a "debounce" to the search, typing more than a few characters at a time automatically kicks off a new request for the entire page
indiehackerman•49m ago
Thanks for the suggestion, added!
freetonik•11h ago
Shameless plug, but hopefully relevant enough: my directory and search engine for personal blogs[1] indexes over 1000 RSS feeds, and naturally lots of them are about engineering and software development. Full-text search is implemented with Typesense, and there are also "related" recommendations for each post, example [2].

Thought about it, but not sure yet. Not too many user yet for that sort of thing.
ozgrakkurt•11h ago
Amazing idea but Cloudflare DDOSes my browser when I try to open it.

Also a nice reminder to move my website off of cloudflare asap

jagged-chisel•6h ago
Maybe I’m a bit out of the loop on Cloudflare’s activity these days, but I’m not sure I understand your statement.

Cloudflare thinks your browser is part of a DDoS?

Cloudflare is attacking your browser from several places across the internet?

8organicbits•4h ago
My guess is that this refers to the CPU challenge. Presumably DDoS here should be DoS, specifically overwhelming their CPU or draining their battery.

https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/278660/why-are-...

ozgrakkurt•3h ago
On my phone, it locks up my browser with it’s “check” so I have to restart it.

I understand it isn’t related to DDOS but used it as a joke since it is basically attacking my browser

pbronez•11h ago
Cool idea. I thought I’d try to make a Kagi Lens to accomplish the same thing:

https://kagi.com/lenses/LdYine8hZtYmrt8yTMngOUtvTM9rmkRy

Kagi Lenses can be defined in many ways, one of which is specifying URLs to search. Unfortunately you can only provide 10 URLs per lens. Here are the ones I chose:

https://stripe.com/blog/engineering, https://engineering.fb.com/, https://www.uber.com/en-US/blog/engineering/, https://netflixtechblog.com/, https://research.google/blog/, https://technology.riotgames.com/, https://incident.io/blog, https://www.anthropic.com/engineering, https://openai.com/news/, https://shopify.engineering/

pbronez•11h ago
When I use this lens to search for “Python” the top three hits are:

Meta’s Pyrefly announcement (may 2025)

Netflix post about their overall use of python (March 2013)

Google’s announcement of the Croissant ML metadata format (March 2024)

jzig•9h ago

No AWS blog? If anything I have found the AWS blog the highest quality and most novel. The articles on things like route53 are really interesting.

I like the concept. Many times I look for high quality articles to go deep on some topics. I recommend you the fly.io blog [1], it has really nice articles.

FYI here is a list of hundreds of engineering blogs: https://github.com/kilimchoi/engineering-blogs

Thanks! It's a great collection and have been using that as a reference. Hasn't been updated in a while but definitely will try to add as many as I can

I've been collecting OPML blogrolls for a project, here's over one hundred I've found. I'll add this one too.

This is unfortunate, RSS has promise to be that standard format. I've seen high adoption, but it's not universal.

indiehackerman•9h ago
I started off with scraping through RSS but quickly realised it doesn't include all historical posts
Quitschquat•8h ago
It would be cool to filter out the AI/LLM stuff
indiehackerman•8h ago
Will add that to the list, thanks for the suggestion
mmargenot•8h ago
Are you trying to stick with company blogs primarily, or to expand into general non-affiliated eng blogs? People like Maggie Appleton (https://maggieappleton.com/) and Patrick McKenzie (https://www.kalzumeus.com/) frequently have compelling ideas around technology, but I suppose that's a different "product" from what a company blog is selling.
kathir05•7h ago
This is interesting stuff!! Love to see further updates and scale on this
kenanfyi•6h ago
Looks good, but it‘s fascinating the term engineering nowadays almost only boils down to software(also mostly web) and AI, although it is way more than that.
mrugge•6h ago

cosmicgadget•6h ago
Great idea and the post preview cards are excellent.

I've found software security companies tend to have interesting blog posts.

fuzball1989•5h ago
Are you sure you want to add hundreds of blogs? I would keep it curated to 10-20 otherwise it will turn into an RSS feed but I think you are chasing a goal of having the most interesting blogs to read and for people to use in their designs, coding etc.
yieldcrv•4h ago
Thanks for having a default feed to show an example of what to expect

So many show and tells neglect that

I guess this is a reason why it does not have recent blogs from some of the sites. Otherwise, it's definitely something I'd use

gombosg•3h ago
I kind of miss the RSS days when you just had your own news/blog aggregator without the annoyance of Substack, Medium or anything else.

I think not.
