+
+[Dimforge][dimforge] creates open-source Rust crates for numerical simulation.
+Some of the [recent updates][dimforge-update]:
+
+- [Rapier] v0.9 brings user-defined storages, colliders not attached
+  to any rigid-body, velocity-based kinematic bodies,
+  and a lot of [other improvements][rapier-v0-9].
+- bevy_rapier v0.10 was completely rewritten using
+  the new user-defined storages to become
+  significantly more ergonomic and "bevy-native" feel.
+- New exhaustive user-guides for [Rapier][guide-rapier]
+  and [bevy_rapier][guide-bevy_rapier] were written.
+  They cover all the available features of Rapier, excepted details about
+  implementing your own custom storage for colliders and rigid-bodies.
+- The [JS bindings for Rapier][rapier-js] have been updated to use Rapier 0.9.
+- nalgebra v0.26 and v0.27 got [const-generics support][na-const]
+  and macros for constructing matrices/vectors/points in a convenient way.
