Create an RSS feed (.XML)

Question

Can anyone help or ELI5 how to create an XML file to create an RSS Feed for a website?

I know I can purchase from rss.app or an Extension but really hoping to utilize my newfound coding skills here.

Thanks so much!

Publishing an RSS feed when you have some programming skills can be as simple as studying the RSS format and making a URL available to provide information in that format. Your RSS feed should also be available over HTTP's GET method, without authentication(requiring no username and password) and set Content-type to application/atom+xml.

If you have a lot of frequently updated items in your website like blogs, you could make an RSS item for each and every blog post.

You can learn more about the RSS format from wikipedia:
