Bubo Reader: An irrationally minimalist RSS feed reader

Hey all, I wanted to share this solution to a minimalist RSS Feed Reader by George Mandis, who wrote a great blog post about his approach here: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;george.mand.is&#x2F;2019&#x2F;11&#x2F;introducing-bubo-rss-an-absurdly-minimalist-rss-feed-reader&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;george.mand.is&#x2F;2019&#x2F;11&#x2F;introducing-bubo-rss-an-absur...</a> Essentially, the reader is nothing but a build script that is routinely run to build a static web page that can then be published to Netlify&#x2F;Vercel&#x2F;Github pages&#x2F;etc.<p>Anyway, I was using Inoreader for about a year (highly recommended, by the way) before I decided to fork George&#x27;s project for my own purposes. After a few opinionated changes, I was happy with the outcome ([link redacted]). I used George&#x27;s method of building via Github Actions. I modified the Github Actions workflow to build every 30 minutes and deploy directly to Github Pages.<p>While definitely not as powerful as Inoreader, I feel the outcome is enough for my purposes, and I was happy that I could customize the HTML&#x2F;CSS to my liking instead of adding tons of custom CSS to Inoreader using Stylus.<p>Thanks George!
