Kriss Feed is a simple and beautiful RSS reader that allows you to keep up with all of your favorite blogs and websites. In this tutorial, we'll show you how to install Kriss Feed on macOS using GitHub.
Before we begin, make sure you have the following prerequisites installed on your macOS system:
If you don't have these installed already, you can download and install PHP using Homebrew, a package manager for macOS.
Follow the steps below to install Kriss Feed:
Download Kriss Feed from the GitHub repository by either clicking the "Code" button and selecting "Download ZIP" or by cloning the repository using Git.
Extract the ZIP file to a directory of your choice.
Open a Terminal window on your macOS system.
Navigate to the directory where you extracted Kriss Feed using the cd command. For example, if you extracted Kriss Feed to your Downloads directory, you would run the following command:
cd ~/Downloads/kriss_feed-master
Run the following command to install the required PHP dependencies:
php composer.phar install
Next, you'll need to create a copy of the config.default.php file and rename it to config.php:
cp config.default.php config.php
Open the config.php file in your preferred text editor and modify the settings to suit your needs. At a minimum, you'll need to update the DATA_DIR setting to specify where Kriss Feed should store its data. For example:
define('DATA_DIR', '/Users/{yourusername}/kriss');
Finally, start the Kriss Feed web server by running the following command:
php -S localhost:8000 -t .
This will start the Kriss Feed web server on port 8000. You can then open a web browser and navigate to http://localhost:8000 to access Kriss Feed.
Congratulations, you've successfully installed Kriss Feed on macOS!
