selfoss is a multipurpose RSS reader and feed aggregation web application. It allows you to easily follow updates from different web sites, social networks and other platforms, all in single place. It is written in PHP, allowing you to run it basically anywhere.
For more information visit our web site.
selfoss is currently maintained by Jan Tojnar in his free time. Due to the limited capacity, maintenance is prioritized over new features. Pull requests are welcome, see the Contributing guide.

Selfoss uses composer and npm for installing external libraries. When you clone the repository you have to issue composer install to retrieve the external sources.
For the client side, you will also need JavaScript dependencies installed by calling npm install in the client/ directory. You can use npm run install-dependencies as a shortcut for installing both sets of dependencies.
We use Parcel (installed by the command above) to build the client side of selfoss. Every time anything in client/ directory changes, you will need to run npm run build for the client to be built and installed into the public directory. When developing, you can also use npm run dev; it will watch for asset changes, rebuild the bundles as needed, and reload selfoss automatically. Upon switching between npm run dev and npm run build, you may need to delete client/.cache.
If you want to create a package with all the dependencies bundled, you can run npm run dist command to produce a zipball.
Every patch is expected to adhere to our coding style, which is checked automatically by CI. You can install the checkers locally using npm run install-dependencies, and then run the checks using npm run check before submitting a pull request. There is also npm run fix, that will attempt to fix the formatting.
selfoss was created by Tobias Zeising, and the source code is licensed under the GNU General Public licence version 3, or (at your option) any later version.
Some parts of the source code can be licensed under version 3 only, we are currently trying to resolve it.
The package with bundled dependencies might be distributed under version 3 only.
Very special thanks to all contributors of pull requests here on GitHub, as well as translators on Weblate. Your improvements are awesome!
