A small safeguard. Aether now confirms before you delete something important, catching destructive actions before they happen.

#AidTransparency #IATI

Small change. Every destructive action taken within the Activity Editor now surfaces a toast notification with an Undo button, so you can reverse it instantly.

🚀 IMF exchange rate data… now pip-installable

github.com/codywallace/...

Built this as an open source tool for public finance management systems - needing #exchange_rates (USD, EUR, SDR) dynamically in applications.

Issues / contributions welcome!

Next week, we’re bringing together leading voices from across the development cooperation community. We’ll discuss how to deliver on development effectiveness commitments made at the International Conference on Financing for Development (#FfD).

Small updates to Activity Locations:
-Required fields now marked with clear red dots
-Location descriptions display where you'd expect them, in both list and card views
- Long location names wrap instead of being cut off
- Cleaner modal headers and a subtler "Show more" style.

Activity Dates now all look consistent. Every date field shows a little calendar icon, so you can spot them at a glance. No more hunting for which field is a date. Tiny change, smoother flow.

#IATI #aidtransparency

Added little (?) help icons throughout the Countries & Regions form. Hover any field and you'll get a plain-English explanation of what it means and why it matters. No need to guess what Vocabulary or Narrative means. Small change, big win for anyone new to IATI reporting.

Shipped 4 small fixes to the Humanitarian tab. Now a tooltip shows the response narrative. I renamed "Response Description" → "Response Activity Description", and added (?) help icons on all modal fields, and fixed Next-button misrouting so it lands on Countries & Regions.

Been adding beautiful empty state illustrations throughout Aether. Some two dozen so far. Each one intended as a visual metaphor for what belongs there. A beaker for sector allocations, a shipping pallet for humanitarian emergencies, a squirrel for budgets etc...

Small quality of life improvement in the #IATI import workflow.

When users import an activity from the IATI Datastore, Aether now scans the activity title for an acronym and lets you save it separately. Improves UI clarity.

Making small refinements to the sidebar navigation in Aether to create a smoother, more intuitive user experience.

#IATI

It appears to be working.

Working on enabling Aether to parse and import Conditions from #IATI XML.

You’ll soon be able to capture policy, performance, or reporting conditions automatically when importing activities.

Coming in a few days.

Mapping SDGs in #Aether takes seconds.

Each activity can be linked to one or more Sustainable Development Goals (#SDGs), ready for analysis.

#IATI #aideffectiveness #aidtransparncy #globalgoals

Aether now supports basic importing of IATI XML results, including result titles, descriptions, indicators, baselines, targets, and actuals.

Automatically parsed, structured, and linked to activities. Built for accuracy and transparency.

#IATI #aidtransparency #devfinance

A draft UI for the new Financing Terms UI, built for reporting or importing loan conditions straight from #IATI XML.

Track interest rates, repayment schedules, and annual loan status...

More work to be done, but it's a good first step.

#AidTransparency #DFMIS #IATI

IATI-compliant Country Budget Mapping is now live.

Import mappings directly from your #IATI XML (or report them manually) to align activities with recipient budget classifications. Clean, transparent, and fully interoperable.

Keeps programme, project and sub-activity relationships intact. Visualise parent and child structures automatically. Built for transparency, traceability and better data design.

Aether now supports importing IATI XML Humanitarian Scope data, allowing activities to be linked directly to relevant emergencies or appeals.

#IATI #HumanitarianData #GlobalDev #AidEffectiveness

Working on a new Quick Add Activity feature for Aether.

Sometimes you don’t have all the details (or the time) to enter all fields.

Now you can hit Quick Add, fill just the essentials (title, status, country, dates), and get your activity into the system in seconds.
