A really nice to have thing to have ....

Currently being worked on, expect updates soon ...

Describe how something should be done so that when you start, you don't make a mess

Issues that are queued to be worked on now (but are not currently in development)

Issues that will be tackled at some future point (probably in a month)

Issues that are currently in the planning stage
