Hi HN,<p>At Cloudron.io, we track the releases of hundreds of apps on GitHub. We used to use a service called sibbell.com for this but they shutdown recently. We wrote Release Bell as an alternative.<p>Essentially, it monitors all your starred GitHub projects and sends you an email notification when a new release is available.<p>The project is self-hosted, so (obviously) we packaged it for Cloudron. You can install Release Bell on your Cloudron or take a look at the demo instance - <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;demo.releasebell.com" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;demo.releasebell.com</a> (username: releasebell password: releasebell) The app does not have any special demo mode to protect the settings, I will try to reset it if needed. Also given the purpose of the app to simply send notifications, we kept the UI minimal.
