in Cloudflare, NYT, tech

Folks, I made a thing – NYT Redirect

So, The New York Times provides a nice service where they put the day’s newspaper’s front page as a PDF up on an obscure URL for anyone to see

https://static01.nyt.com/images/2022/08/26/nytfrontpage/scan.pdf

If you’re a logged in user who wants to use their webapp instead, you can go to –

https://www.nytimes.com/section/todayspaper

If you’re like me, you can never remember how to get to these links.

So, using the power of Cloudflare Workers, I made a little URL redirector that takes you to these pages.

You can access it by going to these URLs –

https://nyt.nitinkhanna.com or https://nyt.nitinkhanna.com/front for the PDF version

https://nyt.nitinkhanna.com/today or https://nyt.nitinkhanna.com/todayspaper for the webapp version

https://nyt.nitinkhanna.com/about for my omg.lol profile which has all this information, including a link to the GitHub repo for this little thing 🙂

Cheers!
