FeedMe is a small native SwiftUI feed reader for macOS and iOS. It is local-first, account-free, and built around a shared Swift package for feed parsing, OPML import/export, refresh orchestration, and SQLite persistence.

## What It Does
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Reads RSS, Atom, and JSON Feed sources.
|
||
|
|
- Imports and exports OPML.
|
||
|
|
- Stores the feed library locally in SQLite.
|
||
|
|
- Tracks folders, unread/read state, starred items, refresh history, and retention cleanup.
|
||
|
|
- Shares one SwiftUI reader interface across macOS and iOS.
|
||
|
|
- Includes a real-feed validation CLI for release checks.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Technical Shape
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The app is split into a reusable feed core and a shared UI package. The core owns parsing, feed discovery, refresh behavior, OPML, fetching, and persistence. The UI layer handles the reader, feed organization, article rendering, search, and platform commands.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The release build is intentionally size-conscious: local package code is statically linked where practical, release symbols are stripped, and the verification script checks app size as part of the release gate.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Status
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FeedMe is in open beta. Current work is focused on release hardening, real-feed validation, and keeping the app small while preserving a useful local reader workflow.
