An Inoreader Desktop App  

Still in early stage.

The app is destined to become a client for online aggregators like Inoreader, Commafeed etc...

## Layout

Two layouts available : 

* three pane view 

 

* grid view

And two themes for the moment a light one and a dark one.

## Content

For each article there are three contents : 

* the rss feed content

* the web article (from the original website)

* the cleaned up/mobile content (provided by The Mercury Web Parser https://mercury.postlight.com/)

The app supports internationalization, currently english and french are provided.

Translations are welcome !

## Services

Concerning Inoreader, Wallabag and Pocket, authentification and login are performed through Oauth2, so this app does **NOT** know and does **NOT** keep any of your credentials. 

We respect your privacy.

The articles can be shared to Pocket and Wallabag directly from lecter.

Support for Instapaper is planned.

## Screenshots

You can see the different themes and layouts below :

## Installation

At the moment we provide a .deb package, an appimage and a windows exe.

An appimage is a standalone, no installation, package which is supposed to run seamlessly on all Linux platforms.

To use it just set executable permission to the .appimage file and double-click/execute.

You will be prompted to see whether you want desktop integration or not.

Building .dmg should be possible once I find a build platform.

## Currently

Currently being rewritten after being forked from 

A renaming occured to reflect this and the app now lives its own life.

## Why the supid name ?

Well all RSS apps are called Feed or Reader or a combo of both.

In french the word reader is translated as lecteur and lecteur has the same pronounciation as lecter.
