ChangeDetection is an open-source web application designed to help users monitor and track changes on various web pages. It operates by periodically checking specified URLs and notifying users when any modifications are detected. This can be particularly useful for monitoring updates on websites, such as news articles, product pages, or any content that may change over time. The tool is customizable, allowing users to define the frequency of checks, the method of notification (like email alerts), and various filtering options to pinpoint relevant changes.
The software can be self-hosted on various platforms, making it a flexible solution for individuals and organizations looking to maintain control over their data and notifications. With a user-friendly interface, ChangeDetection simplifies the process of keeping track of web content changes, ensuring users are always informed without the need to constantly revisit sites manually. Additionally, its GitHub repository offers the code for users who wish to modify or extend the application's functionality further.
