This is the feature wishlist for Fornjot! If there's anything you'd like to see in Fornjot, please comment here. I'll keep this post up-to-date with suggestions posted below.
Actionable
We keep track of feature requests that are actionable, i.e. can be worked on in the near-term, using GitHub Issues. If you're not sure whether your feature request falls into that category, feel free to just post here and ask.
Would be cool, but...
These are feature requests that would be cool to have, aren't really blocked by anything (so could be worked on in the near term), but there's another problem. Like unclear demand (someone mentioned it or it seems obvious, but unclear if anyone would actually use it), or lack of resources (nobody has expressed interest in working on it).
If you're interested in any of these features, please speak up! It doesn't take a lot to move them to the "actionable" list.
Premature
Premature feature requests are those that we'd like to have, but that aren't ready to be worked on, for one reason or another.
Some of those might be pretty close to ready though. A lot of them require research to figure out what's even required to get them done, so they might not even be that hard to do. If you're interested in a specific items, feel free to do that research. It might be all that's required to move a feature to the "actionable" list.
Out of scope
For a project to work, it needs to have some kind of vision to guide it. Some features don't fit that vision, and are thus considered out of scope. What's considered out of scope can change, as the vision and the resources to realize it evolve.
Maybe some of those could start as external projects and later be merged into the project. If you're interested in starting such an effort (whether the goal is to eventually merge it or not), please speak up. Making Fornjot more flexible, so an ecosystem can be built around it, is an important goal, and making changes that enable such work is always on the table.
Creating a CAD kernel is already enough work, however. We'd have to make real headway in that area before something like this could be considered.
