FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is a product changelog?
A product changelog is a public-facing record of new features, improvements, and bug fixes you ship. It keeps users informed about product progress and closes the loop on feedback they submitted. Quackback publishes changelog entries with email and RSS notifications built in.
What format should a changelog use?
Most changelogs group entries by date and categorize them as features, improvements, or fixes. The Keep a Changelog convention is widely adopted. Quackback supports categories, tags, and rich text so you can follow any format that fits your audience.
What is the difference between a changelog and release notes?
Release notes describe a single release in detail. A changelog is the running log of all releases over time. In practice many teams use the terms interchangeably. Quackback supports both — individual entries for release notes and a chronological feed for the changelog.
Is there a free changelog tool?
Quackback is free and open source. The changelog feature includes a rich text editor, email notifications to subscribers, RSS feed, categories, and scheduling. Self-host it with no limits on entries or subscribers.
