02:30 AMa) Performance optimisations that speed up updates and reduce memory usage. This involved a lot of refactor to core datastructures, and is almost done.
b) Overrides using dynamic filtering: if someone searches for e.g. “white dress”, automatically apply white as a color filter then do a text search only for “dress”. About 80% done.
c) Improving multi-field search relevancy. We have fixed almost 4-5 edge cases here, which covers last-mile relevancy issues that some customers have noticed.
Apart from these, we have fixed several other smaller bugs and feature requests (e.g. https://github.com/typesense/typesense/issues/273).
Once 0.22.0 is out, we plan to focus on:
a) Schema updates
b) Phrase matching where you can query for an exact match by wrapping a phrase in quotes, e.g. "foo bar"
c) Other smaller bug fixes and feature requests.
Support for nested documents will probably be scheduled for the release after that.
