Author's notes

Bookmarks and feeds naturally get along, so it was obvious to me to manage them from the same application.

The intent behind Cyca is to put light on feeds you can miss: as Cyca can discover feeds in your bookmarks, when you bookmark a URL, you automatically gain visibility to declared feeds. You don't even need to know about RSS or Atom at all, which could introduce new people to these technologies.

Installation

Please read native installation documentation from Cyca's official website.
