Nothing News Extension

📰 Stay Updated with the Nothing Community — Instantly
Nothing News is a minimalist Chrome extension that delivers the latest headlines, teasers, and updates from the official Nothing Community, all in a sleek, scrollable popup inspired by Nothing’s clean aesthetic.

Whether you’re following product announcements, OS updates, or creative community projects — this extension puts the latest right at your fingertips.

✨ Features
📰 Live News Feed:
Instantly see the most recent posts from the Nothing Community, updated dynamically from a curated source.

🖼️ Visual Cards:
Beautiful image + title previews for each post, styled like modern widgets.

🖱️ One-Click Access:
Click any card to jump straight to the full post on nothing.community.

📱 Mobile-Inspired UI:
Designed with simplicity in mind — no clutter, no noise, just content.

🎨 Dark Mode by Default:
Minimal, contrast-rich design made to blend with Nothing’s brand language.

⚙️ How It Works:
Nothing News fetches a clean JSON feed (publicly hosted and regularly updated), and presents each news item as a card with:

-Image

-Headline

-Direct link to the official forum post

It runs only when you open the popup — no background scripts, no memory usage.

✅ Why You'll Love It:
Saves time — no need to check the forum manually

Zero bloat — no tracking, no ads, no distractions

Looks and feels like a native part of the Nothing experience

Always up-to-date thanks to a live JSON feed that you (or the dev) can easily update

🔒 Privacy First:
Nothing News does not collect any personal data.
It does not require sign-in or permissions beyond basic tab access to open links.

✅ No background tracking
✅ No analytics
✅ No third-party integrations

It’s as lightweight and respectful as a news feed should be.

🔁 How Often Is It Updated?
The feed is managed manually (via a hosted JSON file), meaning only hand-picked headlines from the Nothing team or community are shown. This avoids clutter and ensures quality updates.

📥 How to Use:
-Click the extension icon in your toolbar

-Scroll through the latest headlines

-Click any card to read the full post

💬 Questions or Feedback?
Feel free to suggest features or report issues via the GitHub repository (if public), or contact the developer via the support page.

💡 Designed to Blend In
Just like Nothing’s products, this extension is meant to get out of the way — and simply work.

If you love their design language, clean interfaces, and the futuristic feel of modern UI — Nothing News was made for you.

🖤 Built by a fan, for fans.
