GetEndOfLife: lifecycle alerts built on the API

[sharadregoti]

Hi everyone,

I built GetEndOfLife, an alerting layer on top of the endoflife.date API, and wanted to share it here.

What it does

There is a page per tracked product, built from the API at build time. The part that is not just a mirror is change detection: a daily poll diffs each product's cycles against stored state and emits events for new cycles, patch releases, an EOL date being announced, and an existing EOL date being changed. Subscribers pick the dependencies they actually run and get those events by email, Slack, Teams, webhook, or RSS.

That last event type is the reason I built it. Your iCalendar feeds already answer "when is this date", but a calendar entry cannot tell you that a vendor moved the date after you had already planned around it.

It is free, with no paid tier. The data is yours, and I credit it on /about and in /llms.txt rather than passing it off as my own.

If it fits, I would appreciate being added to the Known Users page, under Dashboards or End-users, whichever you think is right.

Thanks for maintaining this. The dataset is the reason the project took a weekend rather than a year of scraping.

Added to Known Users, thanks for building it and letting us know.
