I use this app on CapRover and it works nicely.
Would be nice to have on Cloudron, although I accept not life-changing.
And I think there are various systems like this : I don't how this ChangeDetection.io compares. I just like the ease of use and UI.

Dockerfile available in their repo.

I made an attempt at self-packaging, but getting some errors, which I am investigating.

ok my self-package is working now

I had problems with their Dockerfile, so I made my own using their python install approach.
@staff may recommend this is not good, and very happy to receive advice on that.
However it's working.

Just a simple app which could be installed perhaps in a LAMP container.
Having it as a (self-)package just simplifies that process to a 1-click install.

@timconsidine actually this is nice. I have an entry on my todo list for ages now to add page change detection to releasebell, so we can finally track upstream released which are not done in public git repos, like the minecraft servers.

Maybe I can get some inspiration there how to implement this.

Nevertheless it looks like a nice addition to the app library.
