GitHub Trending RSS Generator

[Python] [Atom] [RSS] [HTML]
§ 00 // ABSTRACT

A Python reimplementation of mshibanami/GitHubTrendingRSS that generates Atom feeds for GitHub Trending views and a simple static HTML index.

Overview

I built GitHub Trending RSS Generator as a Python reimplementation of mshibanami/GitHubTrendingRSS. It turns GitHub Trending views into feeds that can be followed in a feed reader or visited from a generated index page.

The repository was created on 17 March 2025.

Generated feeds

The generator creates Atom feeds for the language views supported by GitHub Trending. It also supports the daily, weekly, and monthly time periods available on that service. A simple static HTML index links to the generated feeds, so the output remains easy to browse without an additional application.

The implementation has minimal dependencies. Keeping the project narrow makes the output and its assumptions easy to inspect: it reflects what the upstream Trending view exposes at the time the generator runs.

I kept the output static and easy to browse, so a generated feed can be used directly in a reader or reached from the index without another service layer.

Lineage

The project credits its upstream source and adapts a practical feed-generation workflow for personal use. Because it follows an external Trending view, changes to that view may require maintenance updates.
