Roadmap

This page outlines the main goals for future releases. While the internal roadmap for the OpenBoard developers is largely pre-determined, any external contribution is very welcome, whether it addresses items below or anything else.

The list below includes some items we are actively working on or have planned to address, but also several that we may not be able to work on ourselves – so if you’d like to contribute some improvements to OpenBoard, feel free to give any of these a go!

## 1.3.x

Our main focus is on fixing bugs, which are not listed here but some of which are listed in the [changelog](https://github.com/OpenBoard-org/OpenBoard/wiki/Changelog) under “known issues”, with more in the issues.
