In progress
Contributor availability is difficult to predict, so we try not to make commitments about when (or whether) a particular feature will get implemented. That said, here's some areas which people are actively working on:
- Create a Heft plugin for StorybookJS
- Upgrade the Jest package used by Heft
- Upgrade the baseline TypeScript version to be 4.x
- Set up a rushstack-samples repo with fully worked out projects illustrating realistic usage patterns
- Share samples for using ReactNative with Rush+PNPM
- Multi-project watch mode for Rush
- Working towards a 1.0 release of Heft, to stabilize the config file and plugin API contracts
Soon, hopefully
The Rush Stack maintainers currently see these feature areas as the main priorities for upcoming investments:
- Multiphase builds for Rush
- Improve the design of Rush publishing (
rush publish,rush version,rush change)
If there's a specific area that's important to you, let us know in the Zulip chat room. And of course, even if a feature isn't listed on the road map, pull requests are always welcome!
