Setup

1. Create the GitHub repository

gh repo create microsoft-security-news --public --source=. --remote=origin

2. Push the code

git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit - Microsoft Security News"
git push -u origin master

3. Enable GitHub Pages

Go to:

Settings → Pages

Set:

• Source: Deploy from a branch (or GitHub Actions if using workflow deployment)
• Branch: master
• Folder: / (root)

4. Configure custom domain

Set:

security.libredevops.org

Ensure your DNS contains:

CNAME security libre-devops.github.io

Wait for GitHub to provision TLS and enable HTTPS.

5. Trigger first feed fetch

Go to:

Actions → Fetch Microsoft Security Feeds → Run workflow

This will generate:

data/feeds.json
data/feed.xml

6. Visit your site

https://security.libredevops.org

Local Development

Install dependencies:

pip install -r scripts/requirements.txt

Run the feed fetcher:

python scripts/fetch_feeds.py

Serve locally:

python -m http.server 8000

Browse:

http://localhost:8000

How It Works

1. GitHub Actions runs daily (or manually)
2. Python feed fetcher pulls RSS / Atom feeds from Microsoft security sources
3. Articles are:
   • normalized
   • deduplicated
   • categorised
   • sorted by publish date
4. Results are written to:

data/feeds.json
data/feed.xml

5. GitHub Pages publishes the updated static site
6. The frontend loads JSON dynamically and renders the live news feed
