BigOlJungle

BigOlJungle contains a collection of open-source web projects. Please see the sub-directories for project-specific READMEs.

Projects:

  • JungleReader: Feed-reader webapp. Read whatever you like, across the web.
  • JungleWriter: [WIP] Website-builder webapp. Create your own website with a feed, files, and blog without leaving the browser.
  • JungleNode: [WIP] Coming soon ;)
  • JungleExt: A web-extension that is required by JungleReader, for making cross-domain web requests.

Other:

  • ToucanProxy: CORs proxy built on CloudFlare Workers. Only used for development.

JungleReader

JungleReader is a free + open-source feed reader.

Some Pros:

  • Builtin support for RSS, Mastodon, YouTube, and Reddit
  • It can "follow" blogs with no RSS support by detecting page changes
  • Free + open-source under AGPL license.
  • All your data is stored locally.
  • Custom plugin support: Write custom scripts to parse websites that don't support RSS. They run locally in a sandbox within the web-app.

Some Cons:

  • Requires a browser extension (required so that the webapp can fetch external content)
  • No mobile support yet
  • No Twitter support yet
  • No image/gif support yet
  • Does not show the full article text in the app (instead links you to the source)
