Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Some Amazon links on the documentation site include hardcoded prices that are not dynamically updated and have been rounded down. IF these links are affiliate-based (they do redirect to URLs with tag parameters but I don't know if they are affiliate IDs), it does not comply with Amazon's affiliate program and can result in being banned from it. And it generally leads to inaccuracies if the prices change and lacks transparency with the (inaccurate) price rounding.
Describe the solution you'd like
Replace the hardcoded prices with dynamically fetched data using Amazon's Product Advertising API to ensure that prices are always accurate and comply with any relevant guidelines. If they are not affiliate links, at least rounding (if rounding at all) to the nearest dollar instead of rounding down would still increase transparency.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Removing the prices entirely from the links to avoid any potential compliance issues. I don't think this is a great alternative though.
Additional context
This is a suggestion to improve compliance and UX. I'm a huge fan of the project and just wanted to bring this to your attention. +Amazon Associates Program Policies, if relevant.
