Get notified of new magazine issues using web scraping and SMS with C# .NET

A C# .NET application is developed to automate the process of receiving new issues of a magazine, using web scraping and SMS notifications. The application uses Twilio for SMS notifications and AngleSharp for HTML parsing. It reads a database to get the latest issue it sends notifications for, fetches the website for the magazine, compares the latest issue number in the database to the latest issue number on the website, and updates its database with the latest issue if there is a new issue. The application also includes a notification mechanism using Twilio Programmable SMS. The worker service runs hourly to check for new issues and send notifications. The application can be adapted for different magazines by creating a new class that implements the IMagazineTrackerService interface and updating the registration code in Program.cs.
