Roadmap

This page gives an overview of the planned features for Worldbuilder. These features are organized by category, not by priority.
Although it is planned to implement these features, this is not a guarantee.

If you have an idea for a great feature, please navigate to Feedback & Issues.

Articles

User Section

Add a User Section (or User Pages) to articles. If a user has Limited or Observer ownership of an article, they can add their own section of text.
This could be used, for example, for users to take notes.

Article Templates

When creating a new article, provide multiple templates (based on article type) to help with the creation of the article (e.g. add Biography section for characters).

Widgets

Widgets are objects that can be inserted into an article as an interactive element.

Timelines

Allow timelines to be inserted into an article.

Hierarchies

A way to display hierarchies, such as family trees, dynasties or social rankings.

Interactive Maps

Drop pins onto maps that display text when clicked, open an article when clicked, or highlight something (e.g. a legend) when hovered.
Create (toggleable) map layers.
Allow zooming & panning.

Interactive Tables

For example:
Pricelists for shops
(Rollable) loot tables

To do/checklists

A configurable list where list items can be added, removed or strikken through.
Can be used as a to do list, as a progress indicator, etc.
Add way to modify list entries from articles (e.g. for note taking)

Automatically create backups of the database with configurable timeframe (e.g. once a week) and a configurable amount of stored backups.
Add option to export and import backups.
Allowing backups to be saved somewhere else (Google Drive, Dropbox, etc) would be a pre.

A conventient way for contenct creators to bundle Worldbuilder articles with their content.
For example, actors could bundle a character article, scenes could bundle a location article, etc.
Ideally, entire campaigns could be imported.

Integrate this calendar into the Timelines feature, link it to relevant article data (such as birth dates), insert dates or (partial) calendars into articles, etc.
