TAO Testing
TAO opens the 56.15 line with a database index while patching a bad migration on three branches.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of eduMe and eXeLearning — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
eduMe keeps publishing healthcare training guides while pitching frontline enablement.
eduMe's recent entries are buyer's guides and explainers: healthcare training software by training type, a frontline enablement versus training essay, UK logistics software, the logistics skills gap and Dayforce LMS alternatives. None describes a change to eduMe's own product.
eXeLearning rebuilds on Bun and Elysia as 4.0 marches toward release.
eXeLearning, the open-source learning-content authoring tool, is finishing its 4.0 cycle — a ground-up backend rewrite on Elysia, Bun, and Kysely — now at rc3 after a beta series. Recent candidates add host integrations (WordPress, Moodle, Omeka-S), accessibility in exports, and richer iDevices.
eduMe's recent entries are buyer's guides and explainers: healthcare training software by training type, a frontline enablement versus training essay, UK logistics software, the logistics skills gap and Dayforce LMS alternatives. None describes a change to eduMe's own product.
The content targets frontline-heavy verticals, healthcare and logistics in particular, and buyers leaving competitors such as EdApp and Dayforce's LMS. The enablement essay hints at a broader category pitch beyond course delivery, but there is no release yet to back it.
Expect more vertical guides and enablement messaging. The entries do not show what product changes, if any, will follow.
eXeLearning, the open-source learning-content authoring tool, is finishing its 4.0 cycle — a ground-up backend rewrite on Elysia, Bun, and Kysely — now at rc3 after a beta series. Recent candidates add host integrations (WordPress, Moodle, Omeka-S), accessibility in exports, and richer iDevices.
The direction is modernization: a maintainable TypeScript/Bun stack, embeddable theming for host platforms, and accessibility and asset-security hardening ahead of a 4.0 stable release.
Expect 4.0.0 stable to follow rc3 shortly, with host-integration theming and accessibility improvements as headline items.
