Announcing: ardy!

A small announcement of a tool I've made: ardy.

I've been transitioning to using Markdown files to track release notes. While I've used OpenCode to generate these based on my git history, it felt a bit like using a sledgehammer to crack an egg. To that end, I looked around at what tools existed for doing what I did with OpenCode, and I was largely dissatisfied: I found tools that did the work, but required you to set up Node or Python or some other runtime environment just to be able to generate release notes. That seemed excessive and silly, so I decided to write up my own tool to do the job with a fraction of the prerequisites and runtime environment footprint.

And, thus, was born ardy. Downloadable binaries are available via the releases page on Codeberg.
