## What it is
A Node.js library that aggregates RSS and Atom news feeds and emits events for every new item published. It automatically manages feed history memory and provides a simple interface for tracking many feeds simultaneously.

## Use cases
- monitor multiple RSS feeds for new posts in real time
- build a news aggregator that notifies on new items
- track blog or podcast feeds and trigger actions on updates
- aggregate Atom feeds into a single event stream
- poll feeds without manually managing seen-item history

## When to choose
- you need a lightweight Node.js library to watch many RSS/Atom feeds and react to new entries via events
- you want automatic feed history deduplication without building it yourself
- you prefer a simple, well-tested API with high test coverage

## When to avoid
- you need a full-featured feed reader application with a UI
- you require parsing of non-RSS/Atom formats like JSON Feed
- you are not using Node.js or JavaScript
