<p>How do I create an rss feed in ASP.Net?  Is there anything built in to support it?  If not, what third-party tools are available?</p>

<p>I'm thinking webforms, not MVC, though I suppose since this isn't a traditional page the difference may be minimal.</p>

It comes with an RSSDataSource control if you\'re into that sort of thing. It also includes a control that will automatically insert the meta tag required for feed autodiscovery in browsers. I found the build provider for creating feeds to be a little kludgey however.</p>\n'}, {'answer_id': 57309, 'author': 'Alex Duggleby', 'author_id': 5790, 'author_profile': 'https://Stackoverflow.com/users/5790', 'pm_score': 2, 'selected': False, 'text': '<p>Use one of the libraries available for generating the actual RSS.
