Preparing for Public Launch 


The demo of Iteration 8 took place on 6 March. If you were unable to attend, you can find a summary in our latest blog post, where we always share updates on each iteration.

Following the successful soft launch of EduXS on 3 March 2025, the platform is now fully operational, with only minor refinements in progress. The public launch is set for 10 March 2025, marking a major milestone in providing a unified resource for digital education infrastructure in Europe.

Governance and Operations Update

The Board of Directors is now fully established, guiding the strategic direction of the platform. We are pleased to welcome Claire Phelan as the newest board member. Meanwhile, the Expert Group is operational, having two working sessions weekly to refine and expand EduXS's content and capabilities.

Backend Enhancements

Significant improvements have been made to the backend of EduXS, including: 

  • Prometheus monitoring integrated with Grafana dashboards for enhanced system observability.
  • New backend APIs to support the improved overview feature.
  • A standardised default filter for InternalStatus (reviewed, review-pending) applied throughout the codebase.
  • Full entity names (if available) are now included in responses.
  • Deployment for Kubernetes clusters has been streamlines (special thanks to Robbert and Stein for resolving all intricate technical details)! 

Frontend Upgrades

The frontend has also seen major improvements to enhance user experience, including:

  • A redesigned overview page with improved resource selection capabilities. 
  • Updated search functionality, now supporting full names and abbreviations. 
  • Clear visual distinctions between different environments. 
  • A refreshed homepage with new topic images. 
  • Sticky compare tabs for easier navigation when scrolling. 
  • Support for rich text descriptions.
