# Roadmap
|
||
|
||
This is the long form version of our [roadmap project][].
|
||
|
||
## Things we are currently doing:
|
||
|
||
1. [Diff summaries][] for C & JavaScript. Q3 2016 or so.
|
||
|
||
- Modelling the abstract semantics of the supported languages. Good summaries require us to know what different parts of the syntax represent.
|
||
- Performance/responsiveness. We need to be able to produce diffs more quickly, and without unicorns. Some of this will involve front-end work (e.g. requesting summaries out-of-band).
|
||
|
||
2. [Semantic diffs][] on .com for C & JavaScript. Q4 2016 or so.
|
||
|
||
- Performance, as above.
|
||
- Resilience. A fault in `semantic-diff` should not break anything else.
|
||
- Metrics. We need to know how it’s behaving in the wild to know what to do about it. This also includes operational metrics such as health checks.
|
||
|
||
## Follow-up things:
|
||
|
||
1. Add support for more languages: [Ruby][], etc.
|
||
2. [Detecting & rendering moves][moves].
|
||
3. [Merging][].
|
||
4. Refining the diff summaries we produce.
|
||
|
||
## Things we would like to do:
|
||
|
||
1. [Interactively refining diffs][interactive].
|
||
2. [Filtering][] diffs.
|
||
3. Diff [table of contents][].
|
||
4. [Jump to symbol definition][].
|
||
5. Eliminate conflicts from renaming [variables][].
|
||
|
||
## Things we would like to do modulo interest/support from other teams:
|
||
|
||
1. APIs/tooling for data science & engineering teams.
|
||
2. Collect data on our heuristics &c. and refine them via e.g. ML.
|
||
3. Diffs as a [service][].
