Spring 2026: giraf-core and giraf-ai
Written on April 7th, 2026 by Nicolai Brodersen Hansen
Two shared services were added to GIRAF this spring.
giraf-core holds what every app needs: users, organisations, citizens, grades and pictograms, and issues the login tokens the apps use. Weekplanner is the first app on it. VTA and Foodplanner still run their own backends and will move later.
giraf-ai generates pictograms from a text prompt and spoken titles with text-to-speech. Weekplanner uses it when adding an activity.
Weekplanner also got choice activities, where a child picks between options, and a landscape layout for iPad. The whole stack runs with one docker compose up from giraf-deploy.
Feel free to share!
