Roadmap
Quote from stagmannz on August 23, 2021, 5:43 amHey,
Its great to see more development on Visual Win, as a long time user of Neobook, its become a bit too dated now so have been watching this space very closely.
I may have missed a few things but was wondering if there is or is going to be a roadmap or feature vote for the Win version?
I am super keen to upgrade but just want to know the future of development here.
Cheers

No, there is not a 'Roadmap' as in big companies with 'Produkt-Managers' and 'Development-Department'.
A resource for the ideas and wishes are the forum here and the old archived 'Neobook Suggestions' forum.
On that forum is a lot of talk about the famous 'wish list'. Several improvments are from that 'wish list'.
Also you have to know that I am not a full time developer. As I do it in my free time, my resources are limited.
And I am still scratching on the surface of a very big source tree. I have learned a lot but still need to learn more about the inner workings of such a big project. So not every wish is easy to implement. Even when I can ask Dave (creator of neobook).
But take a look at the 3 last releases. I think there are a bunch of features which are yet worth to upgrade.
And with the last one, a commercial library (zip) was added because it was easier to buy than to make it.
And for me it makes more sense to made a decision on given facts/features than on promises on a roadmap.
So feel free to post wishes here on the forum. Then we also have a vote when other users would like the idea.
Then it may get done in either a core-addition or a new plugin. (When it is only for a rare usecase it might not make sense to overload the core)
Hint: For the next release we plan improvements in plugin handling and hash-commands.
Regards
