:man_astronaut:t3: Executive Summary

The hard work and dedication of the team have resulted in significant achievements in various different parts of the ecosystem. In terms of documentation, the integration of graph-ts and the establishment of an LTS policy for CLI releases have greatly improved user resources. With subgraph-cacher we are working on enhancing user documentation, with a specific focus on providing practical examples for deploying a Proxy to secure API keys. We also helped host a successful Intro to Graph Workshop at York University.

Within the graph-node, team has tackled critical issues, including addressing an Introspection query problem and aligning with performance testing infrastructure requirements. We are active working on release of Timestamp scalar. The graph-tooling contributions encompass a wide range of enhancements, bug fixes, and maintenance tasks, effectively improving the overall developer experience.

Furthermore, we are collaborating with StreamingFast to develop debugging tools for Substreams. We are also working on a new version of a schema composition, with the new version of Graph Client we can take the assets and deploy them to Gateway. In the coming weeks, we plan to share more demos to showcase our progress, and we welcome early feedback from those who share our excitement for these developments.

Looking ahead, team remain dedicated to their respective priorities, such as delivering Timestamp scalars, setting up infrastructure for performance testing, enhancing documentation, improving CLI usability, supporting Sunrise initiative and advancing schema composition. These endeavours underscore our dedication to the growth and success of The Graph ecosystem.
