# OwnPay Roadmap

This roadmap shows where OwnPay is headed on the path from **Public Beta v0.1.0** to a stable **1.0** and beyond. It's a living document — priorities shift with community feedback, and dates are intentionally avoided in favor of a quality-driven "ship when it's ready" approach.

> Have an idea or a priority you care about? Open a [discussion](https://github.com/own-pay/OwnPay/discussions) or [feature request](https://github.com/own-pay/OwnPay/issues). The roadmap is shaped by the people who run OwnPay.

- ✅ Full internationalization (admin panel + customer checkout)
- ✅ Staff RBAC — granular roles & permissions

## 🚧 Now — Stabilizing the Beta (road to 1.0)

Our focus during the beta period:

- 🚧 Real-world feedback loop — triaging issues from beta self-hosters
- 🚧 Public **live demo** at [demo.ownpay.org](https://demo.ownpay.org)
- 🚧 Expanded api documentation at [docs.ownpay.org](https://docs.ownpay.org)
- 🚧 Guides & tutorials at [learn.ownpay.org](https://learn.ownpay.org)
- 🚧 Hardening, edge-case validation, and performance tuning
- 🚧 Broader gateway coverage and gateway-specific test coverage

---

## 🔭 Next — Toward 1.0 Stable

- 🔭 **1.0 stable release** once the quality bar and feedback goals are met
- 🔭 **Plugin marketplace** at [plugin.ownpay.org](https://plugin.ownpay.org) — discover & install gateways and add-ons
- 🔭 **Mobile companion app** general availability
- 🔭 One-click / scripted **deployment tooling** (VPS provisioning, container images)
- 🔭 Enhanced reporting, analytics & reconciliation dashboards
- 🔭 Expanded webhook event catalog and developer SDKs

---

## 🌅 Later — Beyond 1.0

Longer-term directions we're excited about (subject to community demand):

- 🌅 Marketplace ecosystem with third-party plugin publishing
- 🌅 Additional regional payment methods & MFS coverage
- 🌅 Advanced fraud/risk tooling and configurable rules
- 🌅 Broader governance — a distributed maintainer team (see [GOVERNANCE.md](GOVERNANCE.md))

## A Note on Timing

OwnPay handles real money. We do **not** commit to calendar dates — features ship when they meet our security and quality bar, not before. Star and watch the repository to be notified the moment new releases drop, and follow [blog.ownpay.org](https://blog.ownpay.org) for release notes.

> This document reflects current intentions, not promises. Anything here may change as we learn from the community.
