Subscribe to docs site updates in an end user rendered format

[ndjones]

In migrating from Zendesk Guide to this beautiful MKDocs site I've lost the ability to track changes in a readable format

I'd like to subscribe to the site or specific pages within the site to track changes over time that might be relevant or more relevant than less

I could subscribe to the underlying repository, and track the changes that come through on various requests etc. This tends to be more technical and in source mark down rather than rendered format. I've looked for examples of how other MKDocs sites do this and haven't found anything yet.

I've had a play with mkdocs-rss-plugin which is quite cool. Generates an item whenever a page is updated.

This fits in with my vision for an 'updates page' essentially just a page that renders several feeds in a nice user friendly, filterable way.

If we have a different channel for each data source, people can subscribe to things on an individual basis.

Channels could include

• page updates (via mkdocs-rss-plugin).
• Software updates (via automation that updates supported apps page).
• Patch notes (manual).
• Upcoming training/workshops (via calendar api).
• Status page?

Also, we can always make more descriptive commit messages. Would make things easier to follow. Could also use tags to separate technical and page updates.
