Migrating from < 3.0.0

If you are migrating from a version older than 3.0.0, be sure to update your import as we migrated to ES6 named imports.

If your environment supports the ES6 module syntax, you can import as described above:

import { Feed } from "feed";

Otherwise, you can stick with require():

- const Feed = require('feed');
+ const Feed = require('feed').Feed;
