Hacker News Notifications

Simple status bar app written in Swift that shows random stories from Hacker News at a chosen interval time

##Why I'm a big fan of Hacker News and status bar Applications. I spend hours scrolling in the HN web site to find some interesting story and recently I found these nice API, so I thought, instead of scrolling why not create a status bar app that automatically show me (nicely) a random story from hacker news

##How Just API calls and some JSON manipolation. 100% native code in Swift.

##Required Mac OS X El Capitan 10.11

##Usage There is just an icon in the status bar where you can quit the app, update the top stories and configure the app. In the notification center you can find all the stories.
