This module pulls in a syndicated RSS or Atom feed and displays its most recent items on the site. It is the simple way to surface content published elsewhere — a company blog on a separate domain, an industry news source, an announcements feed — without copying it by hand.

The module is given the feed's address and then controls how much of each item is shown: how many items to list, whether to include the item description or just the headline, and whether to show the feed's own title and image. Because it fetches from a remote address, the feed's publisher controls the content and the site simply reflects it.
