A feed is an API that a web service uses to provide users with frequently updated content. A feed aggregator is an application that acts as a central location for reviewing the content of feeds. It injests feeds and stores their content in its own datastore after transforming it into a standard format.

You and your team will build a feed aggregator service that allows users to login via Twitter, Github, Instagram and Vimeo. It will allow users to subscribe to updates from these feeds. Users can then view these updates all in one location as an aggregated feed.
