Posted in Structr by Kai on Apr 19, 2021
Most of the previous articles were created while building my new side-project FeedWorm. FeedWorm is a simple RSS reader application with notification functionality for feeds. Notifications can either be emails or Telegram messages.
The idea started when I failed to see a question in the StackOverflow tag "structr" and thought that it is kind of tedious to check that tag daily to know about questions. StackOverflow removed the functionality to get notified about new questions some time around introducing "Teams" which offers that functionality at a price. This is completely in their right and I'm not mad about that. I just thought "Well, Structr has a nice RSS feed integration and StackOverflow still offers the RSS feed, so why not create a simple app?". The feature creep started setting in and as I was having fun I added more and more features.
There are still quite a few features I'd like to build but at a certain point you have to release an initial version or you'll never do. This is where we are right now. FeedWorm is based on TailwindCSS, has Telegram integration and also supports notifications via mail. Obviously it also has an SSL certificate from LetsEncrypt which gets updated automatically.
If you are interested, visist https://feedworm.com and see if you like it. Feedback is also very welcome on my twitter.
