What is Savah?

A SAFe planning tool steadily widening from boards into analytics and resourcing

Savah is a Program Increment / SAFe planning tool built around the Program Board. Recent work pushes past board mechanics into configurability (custom fields, screen layouts), a dedicated reporting Dashboard, dependency health tracking, and team capacity planning.

What is Lucide?

Lucide keeps a metronomic release cadence, mostly new icons and repo upkeep

Lucide is the open-source icon library (a Feather fork), and its release stream is exactly what a healthy icon project looks like: frequent minor versions that add a handful of community-contributed icons and otherwise handle CI, docs, metadata, and dependency housekeeping. Recent versions added database variants, star and save icons, and assorted glyphs, with the 1.17.0 line removing deprecated framework packages.

A SAFe planning tool steadily widening from boards into analytics and resourcing

◆ Current state

Savah is a Program Increment / SAFe planning tool built around the Program Board. Recent work pushes past board mechanics into configurability (custom fields, screen layouts), a dedicated reporting Dashboard, dependency health tracking, and team capacity planning.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc is toward a more complete enterprise-agile platform: not just visualizing PI work but configuring it to a team's model, reporting on it, and planning resources against it. Each release fills a gap a SAFe coach would otherwise solve with spreadsheets.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued depth on reporting and resource planning — likely more dashboard widgets and capacity/forecasting refinements that build on the recently shipped Dashboard module.

Lucide keeps a metronomic release cadence, mostly new icons and repo upkeep

◆ Current state

Lucide is the open-source icon library (a Feather fork), and its release stream is exactly what a healthy icon project looks like: frequent minor versions that add a handful of community-contributed icons and otherwise handle CI, docs, metadata, and dependency housekeeping. Recent versions added database variants, star and save icons, and assorted glyphs, with the 1.17.0 line removing deprecated framework packages.

◆ Where it's heading

The trajectory is steady library maintenance and organic catalog growth rather than any directional shift — icons in, tooling tidied, deprecated packages retired. The one structural note is the earlier removal of deprecated vue-next/svelte/angular packages, signaling package-naming cleanup, but the dominant pattern is incremental additions.

◆ Prediction

Expect the same rhythm: regular minor releases adding community icons and maintaining build/docs tooling, with occasional package or metadata cleanups.
