A google-translation of Channing’s post made on 10th of September
Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone! Thank you for your continued attention~
The development of new engine functions has been basically completed. It is written in Rust and has significant improvements in function richness, performance, and memory compression.
At present, there is still a lot of work to be done in the integration with the existing version: on the one hand, the existing version is mainly written in C#, and it is cumbersome to communicate with the Rust engine, especially the memory and life cycle management should be very cautious; on the other hand, The newly introduced pinyin and fuzzy search sorting needs to be integrated with other search functions, and the related sorting rules are still being tried. On the whole, there is still a lot of physical work to do, and it is expected to be experienced in Listary 6 after the November holiday.
P.S. The good news is that a new reliable partner has officially joined, and gradually began to be responsible for R&D progress management and product function research and design, and the investment in Listary will be more and more guaranteed.
