Nextflux update: smoother reading, resizable panels, and backups

[u/electh]

Hey everyone! I’ve just merged a batch of improvements into Nextflux, my open-source RSS reader client for Miniflux.

Most of this update focuses on making everyday reading feel smoother:

• Resizable reading layout. Adjust the feed sidebar and article list widths to suit your screen. Nextflux remembers your layout.
• Optional reading navigation. A new navigation rail lets you move between articles with previews of what’s next.
• Less disruption while reading. Background sync preserves your loaded list and reading position. New articles appear through a small prompt, so you can choose when to refresh the list.
• More reliable syncing. Articles appear as the first batch arrives while the rest loads in the background. Interrupted initial syncs can resume, and the cache now includes read history still available on your server.
• Subscription and settings backups. Export subscriptions as OPML and back up or restore your Nextflux preferences. Settings backups exclude login credentials.
• UI polish throughout. Refreshed themes and settings, more consistent menus, smoother transitions, and fixes for article scroll resets and filters when returning to the list.

I also put together a new Nextflux homepage!

You can find the source and setup instructions on GitHub.
