I have been looking for a stable RSS/Atom library for .NET, preferably open source like AS3 Syndication Library created by Adobe.

I want to integrate an RSS feed in my .NET based site.

Also, are there any JavaScript libraries for the same RSS feed reader?

Maybe the System.ServiceModel.Syndication Namespace can be of help?

I answered a similar question some time back : net has a class to parse ATOM and RSS feeds. Check out the links.

Alternatively You can just remove the "Feed version" from the XML file and parse it as a normal XML file using xmlDocument class.

  • Is parsing the feed client slide better than on server side? same thing can be done using javascript? Also found this http://www.codeplex.com/ASPNETRSSToolkit – Amitd Aug 18 '09 at 09:47
  • The syndication readers may be stable but the are not very robust, one little bit of wrong formatting and the entire feed fails to read. – H H Aug 24 '09 at 18:19

This seems a no-brainer.

Argotic (http://exist.sourceforge.net/atompub.html) is a mature, stable, open source .Net library for RSS and Atom. I've worked within the sources, and they're very feature complete and sensibly implemented (including support for Atom extensions such as GeoCoding, Dublin Core, iTunes and trackback).
