Hi!
A couple of months ago, I started playing with the idea of building my own frontend for FreshRSS. I like FreshRSS a lot, but I wanted something different for the interface.
That little experiment turned into FriRSS. The idea is pretty simple: FreshRSS keeps doing what it does best, while FriRSS gives you another interface on top of it.
I wanted it to work just as well on my computer as on my phone, so there’s a full desktop interface and a mobile PWA with offline reading.I also wanted to be able to make it mine. Layout, colors, themes, fonts, article view, sidebar… quite a lot can be changed directly from the interface.
It now also has full-text extraction, labels & sub-labels, multiple FreshRSS servers, multi-user/OIDC support, and is available in 9 languages. It’s self-hosted, open source, and runs with Docker on amd64 and arm64.
One thing worth mentioning: I’m not a developer. FriRSS is a vibe-coded project. I started with an interface I wanted for myself, kept adding things, fixing things and learning along the way. I’m still doing exactly that. 🙂
If you’re a FreshRSS user and want to give it a try:
