Ignition Roadmap

This page describes planned work for Ignition. The set of planned features and development efforts should provide insight into the overall direction of Ignition. If you would like to see other features on the roadmap, then please get in touch with us at [email protected].

Quarterly Roadmap

2022 Q1 (Jan - Mar) / Q2 (Apr - Jun) - ongoing

Feature Roadmap

A number of features are planned for specific releases of Ignition. The features listed here derive from the Quarterly Roadmap, listed above, and other ongoing projects. See the Release Features page for a list of features already available in each release of Ignition.

A named release of Ignition, such as Acropolis or Blueprint, is tied to a set of library major versions. Our development and release pattern allows us to distribute patch and minor updates into a stable Ignition version. For example, if a new feature does not break API/ABI then we will target the feature to the oldest compatible non-EOL release and propagate the feature forward.
