inkwell

inkwell is a self-hosted RSS/Atom reader that serves articles as static HTML tuned for the built-in browser on a Kindle. Background jobs pre-extract every article and transcode every embedded image, so a tap on the device fetches ready-to-render bytes from local disk.

  • Admin — add and remove feeds and groups, import OPML.
  • Authenticating your e-reader — sign a new Kindle in through the auth gateway without typing on the device.
  • Configuration reference — every YAML field and environment variable, with defaults.
