This task consists of writing a modern Hacker News SPA App from scratch. It may be used as take-away or pair-programming task lasting a max of 2 hours (based on mutual agreement). You are encouraged to add your own ideas to improve the function and/or style of the application.
It is preferable if you solve the task using Angular, but if this is not possible, we are open to seeing your solution with React.

The focus is on:
- Working features
- News list displays correct content
- News list displays items in chronological order
- News counter displays correct count of news
- UI and data updates via Reactive programming (RxJS)
- API binding
- Parent-child component organization
