## Description

Coldsweat is a self-hosted RSS feed aggregator and reader written in Python 3 using the Flask framework. It implements the Fever API, allowing synchronization with popular RSS clients such as Reeder for iOS/macOS and ReadKit. The application provides a web interface for reading and adding feeds, supports multiple users, and offers basic grouping of similar items. Feeds can be imported via OPML and fetched on a schedule using cron. Coldsweat supports SQLite (default), PostgreSQL, and MySQL as database backends. Configuration is done via a TOML file or environment variables prefixed with FLASK_. The project is distributed as a Python wheel on PyPI and installed via pip. It includes a built-in fetcher with HTTP conditional GET support, automatic feed location change detection, and automatic disabling of repeatedly failing feeds.
