Features
Read full description

Site Config can help creating text extraction rules compatible with FiveFilters, Fiery Feeds and Paper Press. You can visually pick or hide specific elements to filter which parts you want to include in the output and which you want to hide. - Web View - You can view the web version of the site and visually pick elements using the selection tool to mark them either as content or to hide them. It can alternatively also show the HTML content of the target site. - Rules View - The rules view shows the textual representation of the created views and allows for more developer centric editing of the rules. This view is optional and can be hidden if you don’t need it. - Preview - Shows the live results of the created rules applied to the loaded website, either as article, as HTML or as a list of found metadata. - Intelligence - You can use Apple Intelligence, if supported on your device, or 3rd party providers like Claude or OpenAI, if you bring your own API key to automatically create the rules for a given website. - Siri Shortcuts - You can use Site Config to fetch the content from websites in Siri Shortcuts
