app_changelog 1.0.0

One changelog. Every platform. A platform-aware CHANGELOG.md parser for shared and platform-specific Flutter app release notes.

example/app_changelog_example.dart

// Shows the installed version's release notes in a "What's new" dialog.
//
// Bundle the changelog as an asset in your app's pubspec.yaml:
//
//   flutter:
//     assets:
//       - CHANGELOG.md
//
// AppChangelog.currentRelease() reads CHANGELOG.md, the installed version and
// the current platform, and returns the notes for that version filtered for
// the platform. Pass `path:` if your changelog lives somewhere else.
