Why I needed Durable Execution to read a toy manual

This post details the application of Temporal's Durable Execution for a personal project translating toy manuals. It showcases: 1. Fan-out pattern for parallel OCR processing per page. 2. Use of Retry Policies for unreliable translation APIs. 3. Heartbeating for long-running site generation Activities. 4. Structuring LLM interaction within Activities using Pydantic for validation and keeping nondeterministic code out of the Workflow definition. It highlights how Temporal's event history and state management enable pipeline continuation after failures without manual intervention.
