list of recent updates, and RSS feed? #8

Open Die4Ever opened 1 month ago

Updated date, added date, removed date? With removed reason? This could power the recent updates list at the top of the page like how the old website does it

Old entries could keep these values as null or default

or maybe we should keep an array of updates with updateddate and updateinfo

This would also allow us to do an rss feed?

list of recent updates works now, but the cutoff date is hardcoded

https://github.com/video-game-randomizers/rando-list/blob/main/src/_includes/recents.html

hopefully it can be made automatic by doing math on site.time variable, which is the build date

site.time is used here: https://github.com/video-game-randomizers/rando-list/blob/main/src/index.html#L26

We could make GitHub Actions update the hardcoded date if we need, but that would be a hack. We could also make schemaChecks.py assert that the cutoff date is within an acceptable range (50 to 65 days or something) and then we just manually keep it up to date? But that could confuse people who just want to contribute yml changes.
