CourtListener Slack Worker

This project is a Cloudflare Worker that ingests Webhooks alerts from CourtListener, formats them for Slack, and then resends them to Slack. The Free Law Project's CourtListener is a great resource to many and has a Webhook service where it'll send you updates to cases, dockets, and more. Sadly, the Webhooks are not formatted for Slack by default. While I think the Free Law Project does great things for the legal community and beyond, I, nor this project, is affiliated, endorsed, or otherwise connected to the Free Law Project.
