What is django-newsfeed? django-newsfeed is a news curator and newsletter subscription package for Django. It can be used to create a news curator website which sends newsletters to their subscribers also it can be used to add a news subscription section to your website.

Newsletter e-mail subscription (ajax support) with e-mail verification. Newsletter e-mail unsubscription (ajax support). Sending newsletters for each issue to all the subscribers. Fully customizable templates. Uses Django's internal tools for sending email. Efficient mass mailing support.

Is there a example site or example of a live sight running it?

I have an Example repo and a video of that running on my local machine GitHub: https://github.com/saadmk11/test-django-newsfeed Youtube Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTLwQHOrY00

Check it out and leave some feedback if possible. :)

Thanks. I have watched the video but I still think hosting a love version somewhere would be an excellent idea. If you would like me to run it locally and give you some feedback, send me an email (my contact details in my HN profile) and I will do so.

OP, I build API around news data (https://newscatcherapi.com/)

Contact me at email in description if you'd like to make some integration.

Great job though!

Awesome I'll check it out.

3-21 requests per hour doesn't seen to be enough to even support development & debugging by a single person.

Then subscribe to a paid plan and get more than that?

Very interesting and well documented. I like it. It's so refreshing when you see a well documented project.

Thanks you, Really appreciate it. Been working with django for a few years but This is my first django package.

This seems amazing - is anyone familiar with a similar project for Flask?

Thanks, I only work with django so, don't know any similar project on flask.

this is why django is so powerful, I joke that if the team uses Django, whenever we do roadmap planning for any feature, the first step is to try "pip install new-feature-1" :D
