RSS News card - flexible, scrollable and customizable feed reader

I couldn’t find an RSS news feed reader for my dashboard that is flexible, fully customizable, can read almost any source properly, including pictures of any format, and is scrollable to fit a smaller card height.

Not being a developer, I teamed up with Claude.ai to create one that is meant to fulfill these requirements. Following a great dose of fine-tuning, I’m now happy with the card for my purposes and thought to share with the community if anyone may be looking for a similar solution.

The RSS News card sports automatic language detection, full visual editor (no need to dig in the YAML), and is designed to scrape the content of various types of RSS feeds with pictures, displaying it on your HA Dashboard the way you want, with many options to tweak.

Features

  • :newspaper: Multiple RSS sources in a single card, sorted by date/time
  • :globe_showing_europe_africa: Automatic language & date format detection from Home Assistant settings
  • :mobile_phone: iOS-compatible scrolling, with adjustable card size
  • :artist_palette: Full visual editor with color picker, toggle switches, and font size controls
  • :warning: Built-in sensor diagnostics with setup instructions
  • :globe_with_meridians: Community localization support (English, Hungarian, German included)
  • :label: News source labels
  • :flexed_biceps:t2: Flexible layout
