Conceptually, this sounds close to /ChemBrows/ by Jean-Patrick Francoia and
Laurent Vial.  You define journals of interest (or better, subscribe to their
RSS feeds to access the abstracts) and eventually rank the publications
according to your interest (up to four pepperoni) to provide a feedback to
train the algorithm.

This open source project (LGPL 3.0) mostly relies on Python and was presented
e.g., in the Journal of Chemical Education (J. Chem. Educ. 2016, 93, 1137-1139;
https://doi.org/10.1021/acs.jchemed.6b00024).  With the (so far) last public
commit by [2018-09-25 Tue] by the authors, at present, it is stashed in a
public archive, https://github.com/chembrows/ChemBrows/commits/master.  Sadly,
indeed neither the repo, nor the recordings of www.chembrows.com on
archive.com provide access to the installers.
