Small steps, steady progress
While resources are tight, EduXS continues to evolve
EduXS will be in maintenance mode from July 2025 onwards, but in the meantime functional improvements are still being delivered as well strengthening the foundation for growth. A key step forward: a new data manager will start next week, supported by a data entry hire currently in progress. Together, they will improve data quality and completeness in focused areas of the platform. These roles mark a significant investment in the long-term value of the content.
Despite limited development capacity in Q2, and an upcoming “keep the lights on” phase in the second half of 2025 until further funding is secured, EduXS continues to move forward in meaningful ways.
Opening up the backend
A major step behind the scenes: image storage via MinIO has been made externally accessible thanks to the integration of S3www. This paves the way for displaying logos and other visual elements on the platform. The actual integration into the frontend is planned for the next development iteration and will be demonstrated during the upcoming demo session in three weeks’ time.
Frontend: consistency and control
On the frontend, a range of updates enhances usability:
- Recently updated entries are now visible on the homepage app.eduxs.eu, offering a real-time view of activity.
- Detail pages now support rich text, improving readability and structure.
- Search results can be explored via a filtered overview. This offers a more advanced filtering and more information per entity.
- In relationship views, users can now hide and unhide cards, allowing for more focused visualisations.
- Shared views are editable, making it easier to tailor and re-share curated perspectives.
