+Today, I cut the [first release (v1.0.0)][3] and [published diff-check to
+GitHub Marketplace][2].
+
+[`diff-check`][4] came out of seeing a common pattern of seeing side effects
+when another automated process would run, creating more work which wouldn't be
+seen at the time. It was really common when I was working on React Native
+projects (if you upgrade an `npm` dependency, you'll often get a change in the
+`Podfile.lock` that Dependabot wouldn't know about), but less frequently in
+projects using Appraisal (another project I maintain). I [previously wrote up
+how it works in the announcement blog post][1].
+
+With some help from [Oscar Gustafsson][5] (thank you!), he helped see some bits
+I'd got wrong and also pointed out some small ways in which we could improve
+the output too. Several weeks ago, [I'd also merged in a PR to use this on
+Administrate][6] and so now I'm pretty happy it's working.
+
+I'd love to hear if it works out for you!
