I am already working on the transcripts for GoTimeFM.
I realized the show notes are not always accurate.
Is this smth that's open sourced as well because I can't find it.

We weren't as forward-looking when we first built the episode editor as we were when we built transcripts, so show notes are not currently open source. 🙁

I'd love to change this!

It's a bit trickier to integrate into our admin since transcripts are a one-way street from GitHub -> changelog.com and the show notes need to be editable on either end. However, it's definitely doable.

Perhaps something you're interested in, @joebew42? 😉

Yeah! I could be interested in that, but I think we need more detail about that. To be honest, I have no a clear of what we are talking about. Open source a tool for handling the transcripts of the episodes? Or to allow a better transcripts editing, from within the admin ui?

I could write up an actual spec. If you're not familiar with how our transripts work, check out our transcripts repo. You will find Markdown files for each show. Each time a file is added/edited on GitHub, the website refreshes its local copy of the transcript for that episode.

I imagine this system would work identically (on a different "show-notes" repo), but also have a feature that pushes back in the other direction. That way if we edit the show notes (on a published episode) via the admin, it would make that a commit on the GitHub repo.
