What it does

This workflow checks a configured list of Github repositories daily to see if a new release has been published. How it works: - Workflow has a daily trigger - RepoConfig node is a JSON array that defines a list of repositories to check releases for - For each of the configured repos it fetches the latest release - If the release was published within the last 24 hours it is output - The release is sent as a Slack message showing the repo name, release name and link Setup - Update the JSON in the RepoConfig node to the Github repos you wish to get notifications for - Setup your Slack connection (or replace with your choice of notification)
