# TypedFetch Roadmap

## Philosophy
TypedFetch aims to be the most developer-friendly HTTP client for TypeScript. Every feature should reduce complexity, improve type safety, or make common patterns easier.

## Version 0.3.0 - Developer Experience (Q1 2025)

### Mock & Testing Utilities
- [ ] Built-in request mocking for tests
- [ ] Record/replay functionality for API responses
- [ ] Type-safe mock generation from OpenAPI specs
- [ ] Test helpers for common scenarios

### Better Error Context
- [ ] Stack trace preservation across async boundaries
- [ ] Request/response snapshots in errors
- [ ] Automatic retry history in error objects
- [ ] Network timing breakdowns

### Developer Tools Integration
- [ ] Browser DevTools extension
- [ ] VS Code extension for request building
- [ ] Request collection management (like Postman, but in your IDE)
- [ ] Live request debugging

## Version 0.4.0 - Type System Power (Q2 2025)

### Advanced Type Inference
- [ ] OpenAPI schema import for automatic typing
- [ ] GraphQL query type inference
- [ ] JSON Schema validation at compile time
- [ ] Type-safe URL building with template literals

### API Documentation Generation
- [ ] Generate TypeScript types from live APIs
- [ ] Automatic API documentation from usage
- [ ] Type-safe API versioning support

## Version 0.5.0 - Performance & Resilience (Q2 2025)

### Connection Management
- [ ] HTTP/2 connection pooling
- [ ] Smart connection reuse
- [ ] Automatic protocol negotiation
- [ ] Connection health monitoring

### Advanced Caching
- [ ] Predictive prefetching
- [ ] Stale-while-revalidate support
- [ ] Partial response caching
- [ ] Cache warming strategies

### Observability
- [ ] OpenTelemetry integration
- [ ] Performance metrics collection
- [ ] Request tracing support
- [ ] Custom metric collectors

## Version 0.6.0 - Real-time & Streaming (Q3 2025)

### WebSocket Support
- [ ] Type-safe WebSocket client
- [ ] Automatic reconnection
- [ ] Message queuing during disconnects
- [ ] Binary protocol support

### Advanced Streaming
- [ ] Stream transformers library
- [ ] Backpressure handling
- [ ] Stream composition utilities
- [ ] Progress events for all operations

## Version 1.0.0 - Production Ready (Q4 2025)

### Security Enhancements
- [ ] Certificate pinning
- [ ] Request signing (AWS, OAuth)
- [ ] Automatic security header management
- [ ] Content Security Policy helpers

### Enterprise Features
- [ ] Proxy auto-configuration
- [ ] NTLM/Kerberos authentication
- [ ] Client certificate support
- [ ] Audit logging

### Stability
- [ ] 100% test coverage
- [ ] Performance regression suite
- [ ] Backward compatibility guarantees
- [ ] Long-term support plan

## Future Considerations

### Protocol Support
- HTTP/3 (QUIC) when browser support matures
- gRPC-Web integration
- WebTransport for bidirectional streaming

### Framework Integration
- First-class React Server Components support
- Nuxt module
- SvelteKit adapter
- Remix utils

### Standards Alignment
- Fetch API parity
- Service Worker integration
- Web Streams API throughout
- Import maps support

## Contributing

We welcome contributions! Priority areas:
1. Testing infrastructure improvements
2. Documentation and examples
3. Framework-specific adapters
4. Performance optimizations

## Principles for New Features

Before adding any feature, ask:
1. Does it make the 80% use case easier?
2. Can it be tree-shaken if not used?
3. Does it maintain our <15KB core bundle size?
4. Is it possible to implement without dependencies?
5. Does it improve developer experience?

Features we'll likely reject:
- Anything that adds required dependencies
- Features that complicate basic usage
- Protocol-specific additions that few developers need
- Anything that breaks backward compatibility
