Product update
A brief update on current and future work.
Current work
Our top priority these weeks remains bug fixing. This is a continuous effort, and we appreciate everyone who has taken the time to report issues so far; please keep them coming. Bear in mind, with the summer period in full swing, we are operating at reduced capacity, which may lead to longer response times.
Aside from bug fixing, we are doing some housekeeping in the admin dashboard, focusing on cleaning up the UX to make it more consistent and intuitive. Finally, we are preparing the Draft Order and Loyalty plugins to be moved out of preview and into our open-source project, making them publicly available.
Future work
We are still planning the roadmap for the coming months and will make sure to keep you updated when new work kicks off.
Take part in the discussion on GitHub or stay tuned on X for frequent updates.
