Raw Blame History

Why

We ship features but nobody knows. There's no record of what changed, no way to share progress, and no way for users to discover new features. A changelog serves three audiences: existing users (what's new), potential users (the project is alive and improving), and social followers (shareable updates).

What Changes

  • Add a /changelog page in the Journal showing dated entries with feature descriptions
  • Changelog entries stored as markdown files in the repo (not a database) — low friction, version controlled, works with the PR workflow
  • Each entry renders as a standalone shareable page (/changelog/2026-03-25) with Open Graph meta tags for social previews
  • A "What's New" badge/dot on the nav bar when there are entries the user hasn't seen
  • The changelog is public (no auth required) — it's part of the product's public face

Capabilities

New Capabilities

  • changelog: Public changelog with dated entries, shareable individual pages with OG tags, "what's new" indicator

Modified Capabilities

(None)

Impact

  • Files: New routes (/changelog, /changelog/:slug), markdown entry files in docs/changelog/ or apps/journal/changelog/, nav bar update
  • Dependencies: A markdown renderer (could reuse react-markdown or render at build time)
  • i18n: Changelog entries written in English (primary audience), German later if needed
