🚀 Today's Highlights
🏢 Enterprise Category Launched! (PR #52, #46, #42)
The brand-new Enterprise category went live with 12 patterns covering Jakarta EE modernization:
- EJB vs CDI, JNDI lookup vs CDI injection
- JDBC vs JPA, JPA vs Jakarta Data, JDBC ResultSet vs JPA Criteria
- Servlet vs JAX-RS, SOAP vs Jakarta REST
- Manual transactions vs declarative, MDB vs Reactive Messaging
- JSF Managed Bean vs CDI Named, EJB Timer vs Jakarta Scheduler, Singleton EJB vs CDI ApplicationScoped
This is a major content milestone — enterprise Java devs now have a dedicated home! 🎉
🔗 Shareable Category Filter URLs (PR #54)
Category filters now update the URL hash (e.g. #enterprise, #language), making it easy to share direct links to a filtered view. The filter also auto-applies on page load from the hash. Great UX win!
🤖 Agentic Workflows Added (PR #49, #47)
Two new GitHub Actions agentic workflows were introduced:
/new-ideas— Suggests new pattern ideas by enhancing existing issues with structured JSON proposalsdaily-repo-status— Generates this very report! 📋
📋 Open Items
🔴 Issues
| # | Title | Priority |
|---|---|---|
| #55 | README is outdated (missing Enterprise, stale counts, no badges, no contributing guide) | High |
🟡 Open PRs
| # | Title |
|---|---|
| #56 | docs: update README — Enterprise category, correct counts, badges, contributing guide |
💡 PR #56 directly addresses issue #55 and looks ready for review!
✅ Recommended Next Steps
- Review & merge PR docs: update README — Enterprise category, correct counts, badges, contributing guide #56 to close issue README is outdated #55 — the README update is already waiting! 🙌
- Grow the Enterprise category — 12 patterns is a great start; consider adding Microprofile, Jakarta Batch, or Jakarta Security patterns
- Explore weak categories — Security (5) and Datetime (6) have the fewest patterns; good candidates for expansion
- Consider a "What's New" page or badge to highlight recently added patterns for returning visitors
- Add contributing docs — Now that there's a JSON schema and agentic workflow, document how the community can contribute new patterns
💪 Team Momentum
Huge props to @brunoborges and Copilot for the incredible velocity today — 5 PRs merged, a brand-new category shipped, and the automation foundation laid. The site is growing fast and looking great! 🚀
