What is Syncthing?

Syncthing 2.1.7 hits a fourth release candidate as fixes move from protocol to sync logic.

Syncthing's 2.1 line added device and folder groups, HTTP CONNECT proxies, optional block indexing and configurable GUI sessions. Every tracked entry since then is a patch release candidate. 2.1.6 took four RCs, and 2.1.7 is now on rc.4, which adds sync-model fixes for metadata shortcuts, parent ownership and receive-only folders on top of rc.3's protocol validation.

What is Teable?

Teable adds Get Started guides to templates and shareable artifacts from the CLI.

Teable ships near-daily. Early November brought impact previews before schema changes, owner-run Routines, self-hosted app domains and a read-only MCP query tool, then filter-based bulk updates and structured queries in Pi sessions. The November 13 release adds interactive Get Started guides for templates, formula-based metrics in structured queries, artifact sharing links from the CLI and API, app previews as a selected user, multi-field record search, and halves the default concurrent Routine runs per space to 5.

5.0

Syncthing 2.1.7 hits a fourth release candidate as fixes move from protocol to sync logic.

◆ Current state

Syncthing's 2.1 line added device and folder groups, HTTP CONNECT proxies, optional block indexing and configurable GUI sessions. Every tracked entry since then is a patch release candidate. 2.1.6 took four RCs, and 2.1.7 is now on rc.4, which adds sync-model fixes for metadata shortcuts, parent ownership and receive-only folders on top of rc.3's protocol validation.

◆ Where it's heading

The project is stabilising the SQLite backend that came with 2.x and tightening the network protocol, and rc.4 extends that to correctness fixes in the sync model itself. Releases go through several RCs before going stable, roughly every two to three weeks.

◆ Prediction

Expect 2.1.7 stable after rc.4, followed by more 2.1.x patches on SQLite and sync correctness. The entries don't show what 2.2 will bring.

Teable adds Get Started guides to templates and shareable artifacts from the CLI.

◆ Current state

Teable ships near-daily. Early November brought impact previews before schema changes, owner-run Routines, self-hosted app domains and a read-only MCP query tool, then filter-based bulk updates and structured queries in Pi sessions. The November 13 release adds interactive Get Started guides for templates, formula-based metrics in structured queries, artifact sharing links from the CLI and API, app previews as a selected user, multi-field record search, and halves the default concurrent Routine runs per space to 5.

◆ Where it's heading

Teable is making its agent-facing pieces (queries, CLI, Routines) consistent with the rest of the product: query expressions now reuse formula syntax, and CLI commands are regrouped with old ones deprecated. Templates with guided setup point toward packaging finished apps for others to install.

◆ Prediction

Expect the deprecated standalone CLI commands to be removed in the next release, as announced, and more template and app-sharing features built on the new guides.
