It’s a marathon, not a sprint.

Updated: 13.02.2024

Version 1.0

Laying out the foundation
This roadmap is not set in stone and depends on community feedback. At this stage in development, we don't hesitate releasing breaking changes.
Primary stories
ProjectsManage multiple websites with a single Nitropage instance.
Blueprint PresetsWanna share a design across several elements, maybe across several pages without copy paste?
DocumentationThe documentation for users and developers will be an integral step towards 1.0.
User ManagementA section in the dashboard to manage admin users.
Media ManagementA new section in the dashboard to manage uploaded files and a better file upload dialog.
Meta framework migration
GroundworkThe underlying meta framework solid-start released a version with a whole new approach. The migration to it is still pending.
Image Resize APIRedesign the current image resize API, because of breaking changes from the framework migration.
Helpful features
