## What it is
Raven Reader is an open-source cross-platform desktop RSS/news reader built with Electron and Vue that aggregates articles from feeds in a clean, distraction-free interface. It supports offline reading, OPML import/export, cloud reader sync (Feedbin, Inoreader, Google Reader API), and theming, with no login or data collection required.

## Use cases
- read all my rss feeds in one desktop app
- distraction-free article reader without ads
- offline reading of saved articles
- import and export feed subscriptions as opml
- sync rss with feedbin or inoreader
- dark mode news reader for windows mac and linux
- private rss reader that collects no personal data

## When to choose
- you want a beautiful, privacy-respecting desktop RSS reader with offline support and cloud sync
- you need cross-platform (Windows/macOS/Linux) feed reading with OPML import/export
- you prefer a no-login, locally encrypted feed reader

## When to avoid
- you need an actively maintained project - the current version is no longer maintained pending a rewrite
- you need a web-based or mobile reader rather than a desktop app
- you need advanced feed filtering or team collaboration features
