WeGoBackstage
N.b. we'll have the full backstage in place later, for now this is just some text to let you know what we've been at.
What's been happening at WGB.HQ?
Sat 11 Oct 2026 - Staging server goes live.
The staging environment is live. That's an apt thespian metaphor, as the staging environment is the dress rehearsal before we bring the full site to life. Main thing is the DB and live instance are running nicely in a persistent cloud environment, and we can test this to uncover bugs and bottlenecks in the code ahead of the GRAND LAUNCH.
What is done?
As of v0.5, these features are at a proof of concept stage. They'll need more work to be ready for the big time.
