July 2025 Monthly Summary for typesense/typesense: Delivered four core features that enhance search relevance, cross-collection analytics, and schema agility, with robust test coverage and persistence guarantees. Pinned hits in union searches improves result relevance when pinned items exist across multiple collections. Dynamic faceting with cross-collection references enables more accurate and flexible analytics. Schema evolution for reference fields provides on-disk persistence and safe updates across batch operations and restarts. Exposing related document counts in join results adds actionable metrics for users and automates answer extraction. The changes collectively improve user experience, reliability, and data modeling flexibility, while maintaining performance and test coverage.
