       OK, it's not pretty, and I don't *completely* understand it, but I think I've just rendered an RSS feed as a regular web page using XML and XSL.(yes, don't worry, your calendar is correct - it's 2021)

       @dajbelshawReminds me of my first job, displaying the XML output from a code coverage tool in Internet Explorer using XSLT... in 2011...I'm hoping RSS makes a comeback; I've been trying to reduce my browsing to an organized reader app, only to realize how many news sites expect you to install their app instead of offering a feed

       @dragon0 Yeah, I've got this side project and it's so simple that it doesn't *need* to be anything other than a nicely-styled RSS feed...

       @dajbelshaw @dragon0 Nicely done, and exactlky how XSLT was envisioned to work. I remember doing some work of my own in that a number of years ago.Today's modern equivalent is sending data in JSON and using Javascript templates to style the page. I've been working on learning how to do that over the last few months, as I convert my gRSShopper API to JSON (so that it acts like a real API).
