 # Marcelle changelog
 
+## Next
+
+- `modelParameters` was improved to support other types
+- `genericChart` was improved to support lazy iterators (e.g. for datasets)
+- New component `onnxModel` using onnruntime-web with a wasm backend by default
+- New widgets (components): `number` and `numberArray`
+- `textField` was updated to `textInput` and its API was updated (`$value` stream instead of `$text`)
+- `button`, `text`, `toggle`, `select`: minor API changes (simplified constructors)
+- `slider` was improved with better defaults for pips and a continuous mode

 ## About
 
-Marcelle is an interactive machine learning toolkit that has been designed to allow ML practitioners, with various levels of expertise, to explore ML and build applications embedding ML models. In particular, Marcelle aims to address the following use cases:
-
-1. interactively designing ML-based web applications with small datasets
-2. teaching ML to an audience without specific skills in ML or CS
-3. learning about ML concepts through exploratory interactive training and testing
-4. discovering and exploring expressive (big) ML models.
-
-Marcelle is a web-based reactive toolkit facilitating the design of custom ML pipelines and personalized user interfaces enabling user interactions on the pipeline's constitutive elements.
+Marcelle is a modular open source toolkit for programming interactive machine learning applications. Marcelle is built around components embedding computation and interaction that can be composed to form reactive machine learning pipelines and custom user interfaces. This architecture enables rapid prototyping and extension. Marcelle can be used to build interfaces to Python scripts, and it provides flexible data stores to facilitate collaboration between machine learning experts, designers and end users.
