AlcedoCore Release Candidates 2 & 3: Bug Fixes and Improvements - AlcedoCore Blog
September 5, 2026
We all know the feeling...
Bugs
We all know the feeling: you release something, and the next day, you have list with issues to fix. The last few days were exactly that. When I released RC01, I expected bugs to surfacebut the sheer number discovered in just a few days was surprising! (Thanks to everyone who reported them!)
Improvements
While fixing bugs, I also introduced several improvements:
- Improved UI for non-admin users
- Filters now use structured field inputs instead of raw text
- More descriptive error messages (toasts)
- Improved support for system fields (e.g., users collection)
- Enhanced functionality for adding sections
- The admin plugin now integrates the official SDK
- CLI: Typescript plugin template example improved
What’s Next
The backend still needs a thorough review and cleanup. While addressing bugs, I noticed redundant logic in some mechanics, particularly those generated by the AI I was using. My first priority will be refining the filtering mechanics, as they are critical for both permissions and filtering via the UI/API.
Schema Introspection + Query Builder
In an earlier prototype, I developed a schema introspection service and query builder. To address current issues with the Items API—and for future optimizations, I’ll be implementing this. It also paves the way for importing existing tables/schemas, though that may be a topic for later.
There are more things “next” and on my mind, some of it is on the other post.
What is on my mind
GitHub
To become a bit more “professional”, i will be using Github releases and pull requests from now on. I will also be looking into providing a contributing.md and other files that you would typicly expect from a GitHub repository.
