How do you keep track of all of the updates, patches, security vulnerabilities, end of support, etc with your server software, programming languages, code frameworks, plugins, APIs, etc?

And is there a service out there (paid, free, anything) that lets me build a list technologies like those mentioned above that will keep track of it all for me and notify me when there’s a change I need to know about?

Gemnasium may resolve some of your problems.

Thanks! I'll check this out!

Hashnode ? (I know, too easy)

You follow the official news/website/github/releases/twitter/facebook, subscribe to newsletters and other mailing lists.

Facebook is the most powerful tool when configured smartly. Like all the pages, set up notifications, follow events, join local groups/meetups, follow top engineers/authors on Twitter.

I know about any updates in a 0-2 days using Facebook/Twitter and immediately via mailing lists.

For security in general around the globe you should subscribe to the US CERT

For Laravel there is https://laraver.xyz/

Thanks! All good advice!

Use Linux and just update software (c) Always your Captain Obvious

P.S. When I log in to Ubuntu through Terminal I always see X packages or kernel can be upgraded.
