ronen1n Posts: 16 I use Monitor web for changes and get instant alerts chrome extension to find changes in websites it's also helping me track new software versions The extension is very easy to use just by entering the site to track and selecting what to track with "monitor parts of page" to select elements to track The extension allows up to 25 websites to track for free So, i made a python tool that take exported content from distill extension and tracks them with in a simple way using requests or with selenium browser Some things to note: - the tool is not perfect, it's far from that - I mostly use the --fast option - some sites elements selections will not track well - mostly i track GitHub so it works perfect for me - captcha detection is just to let you know that this site is problematic - most of the code is AI generated - the exported data from the extension can be pasted into the file tracked_elements.json - if using fast mode and then browser mode it can show changes that not really changed i run it on windows startup with the rest of my startup scripts and if it finds changes is waiting for me to press to continue I uploaded it to GitHub if it will be useful for someone: ronen1n/Website-Change-Tracker Also found this rep that looks good for tracking but didn't try yet: dgtlmoon/changedetection.io edited by ronen1n on 30/04/2025
