Originally created by @MatissJanis on GitHub (Jan 14, 2023).

As a customer I want to be notified that the version of Actual I am using is outdated.

From an engineering POV we can use the Github releases API for this (at least for the frontend part).

When the customer opens the app: make a request to Github releases API. Compare the "latest" version from there with what the current version is. If the version is outdated - show a "outdated" label somewhere (perhaps besides the "sync" label?) with a link to update instructions.

It might be nice to have an “API” for this (like by hosting a JSON file on actualbudget.github.io somewhere) since it could also enable a server-provided notification in case there’s some sort of emergency issue in the future.

If we used github releases could we plug in to that? But good idea, I have it through docker in the host, but certainly beneficial
