Roadmap

[stoneface86]

This issue will serve as a roadmap for planned features. Feel free to suggest new features here, or discuss any of the planned features. Note that the roadmap may change at any time, as certain features may be prioritized as necessary. Reminder that this repo is for the front end of Trackerboy, so some features requested may require back end support (libtrackerboy). libtrackerboy's roadmap is located here

Items in bold are features that are required for release. Once all required features are implemented, the first release version (v1.0.0) will be published. There is no schedule for this version, since it only depends on all requirements being implemented.
