be able to compare deltas and show insert / delete text from previous day or over time

We can use some semantic demarcating edits tags:

A couple potential vehicles:

  1. Build daily site output with the date timestamped and keep built version. Possibly add revision controls. This allows for exploring previous days, but no succinct diff.
  2. During update data - move existing data to faqs-prev.json and new data to faqs-cur.json. Then when building site, grab both data sets (IDs must match) and build updated markdown with diffs

Would like to validate edge cases via a js test framework, but don't have any defacto framework to leverage. Possible frameworks include: mocha, jest, jasmine, or karma
