JSON Feed

A range of software libraries and web frameworks support content syndication via JSON Feed. Supporting clients include NetNewsWire, NewsBlur, ReadKit and Reeder.

Notable publishers include NPR and the Microblogging platform Micro.blog, which uses it as the response format for many API calls.

This is an example feed using the 1.1 Specification. More details can be found on the website, including other optional properties like expired and hubs. Custom objects may also be used by publishers, but feed readers that do not understand it must ignore it.
