RSS is my main source of information. And I've built some RSS-related projects:

1. https://github.com/0x2E/fusion - A lightweight, self-hosted friendly RSS aggregator and reader

2. https://rawweb.org/ - A search engine for indie websites (the crawler collects data from RSS feeds)

3. https://github.com/0x2E/rss-finder - A tool for finding the RSS link of a website



Same for me, and would like to add my own list

1. https://lighthouseapp.io/ - feed reader combined with bookmarking

2. https://lighthouseapp.io/tools/feed-finder - tool to find RSS feeds (https://lighthouseapp.io/blog/deep-dive-finding-rss-feeds)

3. https://lighthouseapp.io/tools/newsletter-to-rss - tool to convert newsletters to RSS feeds


Also: https://kill-the-newsletter.com for use case 3. Free service with no signup that works reliably.


Nice list. I tried at some point to analyze html using a tree-sitter grammar and generate a list of articles, index them, and be on alert every so often for new entries.

RSS feed could be generated automatically with some AI code generator (or tree-sitter query generator), and just parsing the elements of the page.

Eventually i failed, but also i didn't try hard enough.


Rawweb is very cool! Curious, have you implemented your own crawler, RSS parser and search engine?


Crawler is a simple HTTP requester + RSS parser. Full-text searching uses Elasticsearch.
