What I have found gripping

• Fetching and parsing an RSS feed in Python can be done with a library called feedparser

• RSS file formats can be .rss and .xml

• Connecting Django to a PostgreSQL database requires updating the file settings.py and the line starting with "DATABASE ="

• Entering the command \z new_table_name in the terminal displays a list of users and their permissions on the table

What I have read

• RSS 2.0 Specification

• Read the docs: Feedparser
