What's new

Embrayse has been busy implementing a number of targeted improvements, some of which you have already seen over the past few months. Here is an overview of all the changes since the last release:

IDDSI Colours and Codes

The biggest change you will notice in the user interface is the introduction of badges for IDDSI food and drink textures. Previously we displayed this information if full text format, for example L5 - Minced & Moist. Instead, you will now see badges as shown in the screenshots below. This achieves two things: firstly it brings the interface more inline with the IDDSI Framework standards. Secondly, it makes it easier to spot texture modification requirements and saves spaces, especially on the Prep report.

Removing Photos

Both resident and menu items can now have their images removed, if they are no longer relevant. Previously if a photo was already added, it could only be replaced with a different one, but not removed.

Security and Performance Upgrade

In the background, we have been making a major upgrade to our infrastructure and codebase. While there is no functionality change, this upgrade makes Embrayse more secure and more performant than ever. Additionally, it puts us in a good place to build and release more features in 2024 and beyond.

Other improvements and bug fixes
