This looks neat. Will try it out and report back.

I've been using it to create an RSS feed of all the real estate companies websites in my area to get a competitive edge when new properties are being published.

Works great


FYI some feed aggregators have their own solution to subscribe to sites without feeds.

The one on FreshRSS works great: https://freshrss.github.io/FreshRSS/en/users/11_website_scra...


I need (well, want) to generate an RSS feed of the various Facebook groups I'm subscribed to, but the problem is that most of them are private, so I think I'll either need to figure out whether I can do this via their APIs, or whether I'll have to start scraping using browser automation.


Love the logo, very smart. I wonder if this would be useful for people with hand-coded websites to easily provide an RSS feed. Right now I'm actually maintaining one manually, so I might look into setting this up.


I really want something like this that will work for pages behind a login. Would love it for my bank and credit card transactions all in one place, without having to use a 3rd party data mining service.


Love the powerful simplicity, nice work


So any page can turn into an rss feed
