RSS Feed

[DarkArc]

It would be great if there was an RSS for the release notes; maybe something following this pattern?

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<rss version="2.0">
  <channel>
    <title>Ghostty Release Notes</title>
    <link>https://ghostty.org/docs/install/release-notes</link>
    <description>Release Notes for the Ghostty Terminal.</description>
    <item>
      <title>Ghostty 1.1.2</title>
      <description><![CDATA[rendered HTML]]></description>
      <link><![CDATA[https://ghostty.org/docs/install/release-notes/1-1-2]]></link>
      <pubDate>Thu, 06 Feb 2025 18:54:44 +0000</pubDate>
      <guid isPermaLink="true">https://ghostty.org/docs/install/release-notes/1-1-2</guid>
    </item>
  </channel>
</rss>

I'm tempted to try and implement this myself, but I'm not sure about the pubDate rendering unless:

A) making something up from the description (brittle)
B) adding an ISO publication date string into whatever they call this:

---
title: Ghostty 1.1.0
description: |-
  Release notes for Ghostty 1.1.0, released on January 30, 2025.
---

It looks like server rendering is being used for the website and JSX can be used to build RSS documents... So, things should be good there; thoughts?

If RSS feed is not possible for website, we can make use of github releases/tags since Github provides atom feeds out of the box at https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/releases.atom

But the current tags doesn't have the release notes added to it, if the maintainers are okay, we could include the release notes in this repo to the tags in the main repo through some automation or manual work

+1 Might as well make it a modern JSON feed.
