Just arrived in London for two days of meetings, networking, and a bit of leisure. Márk Bartha and Zoltán István Lehóczky represent Lombiq. We first start with a networking event at CEME Business Campus, Grow & Connect: The CEME BGA & LBBD Partnership Business Networking Event. Then, we continue with one on one meetings, and will close the day with When Leadership Meets Strategy in Global Business by HBBA GLOBAL. This time, no sunglasses needed 😐.

Glad to see our benevolent twin also gaining business traction! Check out https://pidmol.com for more! :D

See the Translation Editor admin UI by Sébastien Ros, which helps you easily edit translations by displaying all translatable strings grouped by category, each category as an accordion section. Furthermore, there is a new Statistics Dashboard that shows translation completion progress: - Overall Progress: Total translation progress across all cultures. - By Culture: Progress bar and completion count for each supported culture. - By Category: Detailed breakdown per category for a selected culture.

DotNest, the Orchard Core SaaS has a new look! The previous site was starting to show its age. Not just visually, but also in day-to-day site management UX. So we took a step back and rebuilt the frontend from the ground up. The new site is built with Tailwind CSS and a much more user-friendly content management approach. One takeaway surprised even us: accepting a “crude but workable” content management experience because “we’re developers, we don't care” is rarely a good trade-off. A clean, easy-to-use setup simply makes everyone more effective, including developers. The site management experience has also been refreshed to better match what you’d expect from a modern SaaS: clearer structure, smoother workflows, and less friction overall. Our goal was a simple, straightforward UX that stays out of the way of the content — no unnecessary fluff, just clarity and focus. Stay tuned for an in-depth case study! Take a look, and if you’re curious, you can create Orchard Core sites for free here: 👉 https://dotnest.com/ #DotNest #OrchardCore #SaaS #TailwindCSS

This week in Orchard, we've got some exciting updates you won't want to miss! Majd (Mike) Alhayek showcases Knowledge Base Indexing, which automatically chunks, embeds, and indexes source documents into a unified AI Knowledge Base index for efficient vector search. Hisham Bin Ateya introduces the new OrchardCore.ContentFields.Core module. You can now use content fields without pulling in the entire ContentFields module. Thanks to Georg von Kries, Orchard Core now leverages source generators to boost performance by generating code at compile time and reducing reflection on critical paths. And don't miss our RESCON case study, highlighting how we supported the builders of Ontario. Ready to explore?

Ever wonder how a CMS can make university courses more practical? At Obuda University, Orchard Core did just that. Students learn ASP.NET Core by building live sites on DotNest. They go through milestones, create custom forms and workflows. We talked with our project leader, Gábor Domonkos about how it started, what students build, and why it prepares them for real careers. Full interview here: https://lnkd.in/dPC93Yh8 #OrchardCore #DotNest #OpenSource #Education 

The AI Data Sources module of the AI Suite provides AI data source management, knowledge base indexing, and RAG search capabilities for Orchard Core. When you are using Knowledge Base Indexing, it automatically chunks, embeds, and indexes source documents into a master AI Knowledge Base index for efficient vector search. See this demo from Majd (Mike) Alhayek to learn how you can create an Elasticsearch index to store AI knowledge base document embeddings for vector search!
