State of the code
Until February we were still working on dialing in our architectural decisions. With the latest refactoring of the REST API implementation, we are straightening things out and got in a place of getting a proper process for writing new code (as well as refactoring the old code).
For this some updated documentation is needed, but the documentation itself is regularly updated and shows how the code base is designed.
Next big tasks
- Create a better process for the back-end to test more features
- Create a front-end testing suite
- User feedback
- Interactive BPMN diagrams
Additional contributions
Additional contributions outside the core team are coming and going right now. It is hard to predict on how much acceleration we are getting, but the community is growing and more and more people know how to work with the code base.
Which is a very good thing, as it removes single (or two) points of failure with time.
First alpha release
A great timing for archiving an alpha release would be the EOL of the Camunda 7 community edition. Will we be able to do it? We should be able to have a 80% working application till then, with some rough edges.
Probably not ready to ship, but ready to test by other people than the developers.
Questions?
If you have any specific question regarding the progress of the web apps, feel free to use this topic. I hope to be able to answer them.
