I spent a bit of time several months back making my sure my site's RSS would work well in a feed reader. This meant making a *lot* of modifications to the [default Hugo RSS template](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/blob/master/tpl/tplimpl/embedded/templates/_default/rss.xml). I made it load the full article text rather than just the summary, present correctly-formatted code blocks with no loss of important whitespace, include inline images, and even pass online validation checks:

|
|
|
||
|

It feels like there should be a friendlier way to present a feed "landing page" to help users new to RSS figure out what they need to do in order to follow a blog - and there absolutely is. In much the same way that you can prettify plain HTML with the inclusion of a CSS stylesheet, you can also style boring XML using [eXtensible Stylesheet Language Transformations (XSLT)](https://www.w3schools.com/xml/xsl_intro.asp).

So this post will describe how I styled
