Jan 1, 2025January 2025: Key features delivered include daemon mode with per‑instance logs and enhanced supervision; topology/configuration modernization with a plugin system and per‑instance env vars; and a robust stopping/cleanup workflow to gracefully shut down clusters. Major reliability improvements were added for tests (waits for child processes) and ongoing maintenance (Rust toolchain upgrades and updated docs). Impact: higher reliability during teardown, easier multi‑instance deployments, faster and safer startup, and improved maintainability. Technologies demonstrated: Rust toolchain updates, daemonization techniques, plugin-based topology, per‑instance environment configuration, and strengthened CI/maintenance practices.
