While OP can generate MD, HTML and PDFs we've since moved away from that as the default to an approach in favour of just rendering the outputs as HTML/JSX.

You're 100% right we should make it easy for anyone just checking out the project to see the generated results without running the examples. I will add a CLI example and commit the generated policies to the repo.

Thanks for pointing this out and sorry our docs aren't up to the standard they need to be.

Fair point. "No extra build step privacy policies with Astro" just didn't have the same ring to it.

This was just a small quality of life improvement for the Astro users so it's a huge surprise to see how many reads it's getting.

Hopefully we get the same response next week when we launch 2 very exciting features.

I think most apps don't update often enough. We've seen products with privacy/cookie policies that are 5+ years old and totally out of sync with the product itself.

We're building OpenPolicy not necessarily to reduce the risk companies have of litigation, but instead to be more transparent with users and to build trust.

In the next version we'll be releasing auto-instrumentation that tracks data/third parties to always keep things in sync.

Privacy policy is one thing, but that’s what terms of service are for!

Terms of service don't override laws so only a fool thinks that they have any effect on litigation.

If a set of terms not overriding the law makes it useless, what do you think contracts are for?

Okay a couple of things here... The first is that not all contracts are equally legally binding. Terms of service would be among the least. The second is that a contract also cannot override the law... You can't break the law just because it's in a contract...

This is devastating news.

When I started university he gave a talk to all the new CompScis which as you can imagine was incredibly inspirational for an aspiring Software Engineer.

Grateful to have had that experience.

Anyone else fed up with generating a policy and then having to figure out a way to embed it in your app?
