What is Meshes.jl?
Meshes.jl ships one pull request at a time, and most of them are geometry correctness
The library releases at a rate of several patch versions a week, each carrying a single merged pull request. The current run is evenly split between performance work - an optimised centroid and measure for planar polygons, further GJK tuning, a neighbour-search refactor - and correctness fixes to the same primitives, including a wrong centroid calculation and PolyArea incorrectly adding inner-ring area.
What is WeWeb?
WeWeb is turning the apps it builds into AI products, and metering the AI as it goes.
The consequential release in this window gave backend workflows direct calls to OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini models, so an app built in the editor can ship AI features without a separate service behind it. Shipped alongside were Make and Twilio integrations and better usage monitoring. The most recent entry is a performance release, described only as speed improvements with more work to follow, which is the least specific note in the set.

◆ Current state
The library releases at a rate of several patch versions a week, each carrying a single merged pull request. The current run is evenly split between performance work - an optimised centroid and measure for planar polygons, further GJK tuning, a neighbour-search refactor - and correctness fixes to the same primitives, including a wrong centroid calculation and PolyArea incorrectly adding inner-ring area.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern of optimising a function and then correcting its definition a release later suggests the core geometric predicates are being systematically revisited rather than extended. This is depth work on a settled API: the same handful of operations getting faster and more numerically defensible, including on non-standard number types like BigFloat.
◆ Prediction
Expect the single-PR cadence to continue through the remaining core predicates, with measure and centroid variants for further geometry types the most likely targets. Nothing in these entries points to new geometry abstractions.
WeWeb
6.3DEVOPS
WeWeb is turning the apps it builds into AI products, and metering the AI as it goes.
◆ Current state
The consequential release in this window gave backend workflows direct calls to OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google Gemini models, so an app built in the editor can ship AI features without a separate service behind it. Shipped alongside were Make and Twilio integrations and better usage monitoring. The most recent entry is a performance release, described only as speed improvements with more work to follow, which is the least specific note in the set.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads run in parallel and are starting to converge. One is AI for the builder — WeWeb AI planning, task tracking, MCP work, and AI-assisted debugging of backend workflows. The other is AI in the built app, which is where the model integrations landed. The usage monitoring arriving in the same release as the model calls suggests consumption is being prepared as a billable dimension rather than a convenience readout. Between those, the cadence is steady maintenance: bug fixes, domain setup, Supabase role-based page access.
◆ Prediction
Expect the backend AI actions to accumulate the plumbing a production AI feature needs — credential handling and cost controls tied to that usage monitoring — and expect the performance work to be described concretely once the foundations it refers to are in place.
