The Next Big Thing

So this is a bit of a preview, as to what's coming next and what I've been working on in the past weeks/months.

Finally - with Tobnac's help, we've managed to automate the COMPLETE filter generation pipeline and put it into the cloud.

What does that imply? You might know that I have a tool, that I use to assist me for tiering uniques, divination cards, create styles and strictnesses etc. There's a ton of logic there and it ensures that the filter quality remains high. I've put a lot of effort into this application of the years.

To the point, that many things could be done automatically, entirely without my supervision - such as retiering certain tierlists or recreating styles and updating versions.

Now the tool has grown a step further. It can perform the **entire** pipeline automatically and on a schedule. Since it's (azure) cloud hosted, I don't even have to start my PC. I've invested hundreds of hours to ensure that the quality is high! That means, it can retier all tierslists, update versions, clean up the filter, generate all strictness and styles and upload the results to github (and soon filterblade).

Don't get me wrong - I'll still update the filter by hand.

However, in the future there will be 2 "branches":

- Stable
- Cutting-Edge (needs a better name)

The stable branch will be updated manually and will get new features etc. This is what we have right now

The cutting-edge branch - similar to poe leagues - will be based of the standard branch, but it's tierlists will be 100% up-to-date.

You guys will be able to decide, which version you want to use.

This still needs a bit more adjustments, integration and improvements.

However, today we've generated this:

Feels good man.

This opens a LOT of options!
