Platform Roadmap

Short Term (0-6 months)​

  • Have each app manage its own dependencies
  • Extend app registry for dashboard panels
  • Upgrade to React 17
  • Extend app registry for settings pages
  • Extend app registry for composability panes
  • Extract pertinent metrics from our code at build time and store in the cloud
  • Get sourcemaps working in production/QA again
  • Unify query parameter parsing/stringifying
  • Extract TS info from local packages and generate README content

Mid Term (6-12 months)​

  • Randomize time zone when running Jest tests
  • Create GitHub Action for obtaining weekly metrics
  • Better visibility into Rhapsody performance (DD, NR)
  • Migrate all lodash imports to using nested imports, e.g. import { orderBy } from "lodash" should be import orderBy from "lodash/orderBy" and enforce via the "no-restricted-imports" lint rule
  • Audit the assets/ directory and remove what’s not used anymore
  • Collaborate on a "staging" environment based on a QA setup
  • Investigate using MSW or similar to mock network requests
  • Implement eslint-plugin-jsx-a11y

Long Term (+12 months)​

  • Build each app independently
  • Remove all SVG loaders from webpack
  • Move from Babel to esbuild/sucrase/swc
