A new Insights page reports your downloads, likes, progress and quiz results, with CSV exports of all of it. Alongside it: account settings, a forgotten-password link that actually exists, and a notification when an admin reviews your work.
Search now covers datasets, models, courses, guides and news from a single box. Everything a signed-out visitor can read is also available as JSON, with no key and nothing to sign up for — plus RSS feeds and a sitemap.
Lessons can now end with a quiz you have to pass to finish them, courses issue a shareable certificate when you reach the end, and the learners who took a course can say what it was worth.
Every dataset from the old glitchdata shop now has a page on the hub — and, for 91 of them, a link to the official register, portal or standard where the same data can be had today, free, from the people who publish it.
