What is it?
News is an RSS and Atom feed aggregator distributed as an app for Nextcloud, the self-hosted file and collaboration platform. Users subscribe to feeds, and the app collects new items so they can be read in one place inside their own Nextcloud instance.
The app offers a RESTful API for other app developers to build on. Feed fetching and parsing are handled by the feed-io library, which the project credits in its readme. The app can be installed from the Nextcloud app store browser.
The project provides a troubleshooting guide and an integration guide in its documentation, and the maintainers accept bug reports through the contributing notes.
