An up-to-date list of RSS feeds for front-end developers (overhauled as of March 2020). See 2020 blog post.
Despite the death of Google Reader, I still use RSS regularly, and I think lots of others in the industry do too — but probably not as frequently as we used to.
This list was originally inspired by Paul Irish's list of front-end feeds from 2011, but it's evolved quite a bit since then. I built my own list, which I published in 2014, but I felt like it needed another refresh. The feeds list has been updated multiple times since March 2020, to correct some broken feeds and other issues.
The feeds list is divided into six sections, which I find is easier to digest when perusing it all weekly, or even daily:
- The Giants
- Multi-author Blogs
- Top Front-end Bloggers
- More Front-end Bloggers
- Hackernoon Tags
- Browsers, Engines, etc.
- Libraries, Frameworks, etc.
- Company & Startup Blogs
- Developer & Designer News
- Q&A Sites & Forums
- YouTube Channels
I've excluded some feeds from this list for one or more of the following reasons:
- The blog/site hasn't been updated in a long time
- Posts are very infrequent (e.g. 2 per year or fewer)
- Too many personal posts and other things that have nothing to do with web development, with no way to filter
- Too many list posts, sponsored content, etc.
- Paywalls (e.g. I've excluded most Medium feeds)
This is always a work in progress so I'm happy to take suggestions, even if it's your own feed. So please contribute by opening an issue.
The list of feeds is in an OPML file that you can use to import directly into your feed reader of choice. You'll also find the full list below with links to the RSS feed and the primary URL of the feed, if you just want to pick and choose your own.
Here is the full list of feeds, categorized the same way as in the OPML file, and each category is in alphabetical order (same as in the OPML file).
These are the sites with the most traffic, most popular, etc.
