# Next.js Cron OG

This Next.js template automatically fetches the top stories from Hacker News every minute and stores them in [Upstash](https://vercel.com/integrations/upstash), a Redis client. This template uses [Vercel OG](https://vercel.com/docs/concepts/functions/edge-functions/og-image-generation) to generate an Open Graph (OG) image at the edge, leveraging Upstash for efficient data storage and retrieval.

## Deploy your own
