# RSSHub

> RSSHub is not a reader: it creates RSS feeds for sites that do not offer one, which you then add to Miniflux, FreshRSS or any reader. It has thousands of community-made routes, including keyword searches on some sites. You run it with Docker Compose, Node.js or on hosts like Vercel and Fly.io; builds are released daily (latest dated 21 October 2026). Some routes need your own credentials. For X (Twitter) the docs say: "Configure a comma-separated list of \`auth\_token\` cookies of logged-in Twitter Web", or use paid developer API keys. AGPL-3.0.

## What it replaces
- Feedly: Track keywords (partial). Only makes feeds, including keyword-search feeds for some sites such as X; you still need a feed reader, and there are no alerts or AI summaries.
  - Use it instead of paying for Feedly? Personal use: Yes. Business: Yes.

## Used in these builds
- [Daily news brief](https://repoquarry.dev/builds/daily-news-brief.md): Feeds for any site
- [Topic and sentiment monitor](https://repoquarry.dev/builds/topic-and-sentiment-monitor.md): Turn searches into feeds
