PAN v1.0 Release Roadmap

Current Status: v0.1.0 → v1.0.0

PAN is currently at v0.1.0 with a solid foundation. This document outlines what's needed to reach v1.0.0 - a stable, production-ready release.

✅ What We Have (v0.1.0)

Core Infrastructure

  • ✅ pan-bus - Working message bus with CustomEvents
  • ✅ pan-client - Client API for publish/subscribe/request
  • ✅ pan-autoload - Automatic component loading
  • ✅ Retained messages - State persistence for late joiners
  • ✅ Request/Reply - Async request-response pattern

Component Library (40+ components)

  • ✅ Core (3) - bus, client, autoload
  • ✅ UI (10) - Cards, modals, dropdowns, tabs, pagination, etc.
  • ✅ Components (28+) - Markdown editor, file manager, data tables, charts, forms, theme system
  • ✅ Data (1) - Invoice store (state management pattern)
  • ✅ App (6) - Invoice and devtools components

Demo Applications

  • ✅ Invoice creator (contenteditable, localStorage, multi-invoice)
  • ✅ Markdown notes (OPFS file system, live preview)
  • ✅ Contact manager
  • ✅ Data browser

Documentation

  • ✅ Comprehensive README.md
  • ✅ PAN_SPEC.v1.md (protocol specification)
  • ✅ LARC_ROADMAP.md (feature roadmap)
  • ✅ Component-specific docs (MARKDOWN_SYSTEM.md, THEME_SYSTEM.md)
  • ✅ REORGANIZATION.md (architecture guide)
  • ✅ Individual README files for each directory

Project Structure

  • ✅ Clean, organized top-level structure
  • ✅ Clear component layering (core → ui → components → data → app)

❌ What's Missing for v1.0
