Updates to Markdown

GitHub Workflows Version

Have you ever been in a situation where you want to keep a register of the updates you apply to a WordPress site or a Linux server? 🤔 You know, in case something happens so you know what exact version to revert while applying the fix 🤓

Well, that's what this tool is for! It also served me to practice React 😅 so feel free to submit your PR if you have feedback, suggestons, fixes, or improvements.

Usage

It's pretty simple, but it depends on your source of updates.

For WordPress, copy the output of the updates table on the Update Core page:

For APT, copy the ouput of the list command apt update && apt list --upgradable:

And paste it on the left textbox of this app:

And you will have an instant version in Markdown format on the left side, ready to copy 😁:

- Upgraded WordPress Packages:
  - Post SMTP to `v2.0.10` from `v2.0.9`
  - Yoast SEO to `v12.9.1` from `v12.8.1`

That will make it easier for you to write changelogs in a more readable way 🙂
