Know when web pages change! Stay on top of new information! Live your data-life pro-actively instead of re-actively, do not rely on manipulative social media for consuming important information.

Maybe you need to be notified the moment a government or company web page changes, or possibly you’re waiting for an item to go on sale.

This can be installed and run on a Raspberry Pi at home, or installed quickly as a Docker image.

      I’m still finagling with it but I used the Website Agent and xpaths and it seems to work as intended. I followed a bit of this guide. The problem I’m currently trying to solve is that one of the websites I monitor lazy-loads content with JS, and huginn tries to instantly grab html data.
