**About this document**

This aims at providing a higher-level picture of the [Kubeapps Project Board](https://github.com/kubeapps/kubeapps/issues), which serves as the source of truth of the current backlog of issues. These tasks are moved in accordance with our issue [triage process](./docs/developer/issue-triage-process.md).
This document aims at providing a higher-level picture of the [Kubeapps Project Board](https://github.com/kubeapps/kubeapps/issues), which serves as the source of truth of the current backlog of issues. These tasks are moved in accordance with our issue [triage process](./docs/developer/issue-triage-process.md).

Therefore, this document is intended to be a reference point for Kubeapps users and contributors to understand where the project is heading, and help determine if a contribution might conflict with a longer-term plan.

|Pluggable architecture |Kubeapps moves forward to define a plugin interface as an extensible way to expand Kubeapps to support new packaging formats such as declarative Flux resources, Carvel bundles and other future packaging formats. |Q3 - 2021|
|Kubeapps APIs service |Consistent API for interacting with packages of different formats in a unified way. |Q3 - 2021|
|UI integration for pluggable API|The UI interacts with a single service (Kubeapps APIs service) to present generic interactions with packages to the user, with format-specific content only where necessary.|Q3 - 2021|

|flux plugin |plugin-based support for different packaging systems, moving across our existing Helm support as well as adding fluxv2 support. |Q3 - 2021|
|Update documentation |Reorganizing and updating Kubeapps docs (including new architecture and plugins); Kubeapps website |Exploring/Ongoing|
