Automate Morning Brew-Style Reddit Digests to DEV.to with AI

This n8n workflow automates the creation and distribution of Morning Brew-style digests from any subreddit. It starts by pulling fresh posts through RSS feeds, then uses Bright Data to scrape detailed metrics like upvotes, comments, and replies. Data is processed and flattened using JMESPath for efficiency, before an AI model (OpenAI or Gemini) generates a formatted brief featuring Top Stories, Quick Hits, Community Q&A, and Comment Spotlights.

The output is converted to clean Markdown and published directly to DEV Community via API, streamlining content curation for developers and builders. Optionally, the same digest can be emailed via Gmail, ensuring teams stay updated without manual effort.

Ideal for community managers and content marketers in finance or tech, it saves hours on research and posting while boosting engagement on DEV.to. Customize by adding subreddits, swapping outputs to Slack, or tweaking AI prompts for niche relevance. Requires self-hosted n8n for community nodes, DEV API key, Bright Data credentials, and optional LLM setup.
