SYNOPSIS

RReader is a RSS/Atom feed reader written as a web application in Ruby on Rails.

While still being in development, it already boasts all basic features you would expect from a RSS feed reader. It is meant to be self-hosted and is fully Ajax. The latter means that the web page never needs to be refreshed.

TESTING THE APPLICATION

You need Ruby 1.9.3. Ideally, you should use rvm to manage your ruby version. You also need a to install a runtime JS like nodejs for instance.

Once you have cloned this repository, execute the following commands from the root's directory:

bundle install
rake db:migrate

You can then launch Rails webrick server by issuing the following command:

rails s

You can then navigate to http://localhost:3000/users/sign\_up to register for a user and login once done. You can then add subscriptions and play around. Remember though that this application is currently still in early development stage.
