Roadmap

Currently qTox is under a feature freeze to clean up our codebase and tools. During this time we want to prepare qTox for upcoming new features of toxcore.

The next steps are:

• remove support for toxcore < 0.2.0
• move all toxcore abstractions into their own subproject
• write basic tests for this Core
• format the code base
• rework our TravisCI setup for faster PR checks
• rethink our Issue tracker

The current state is tracked in the Code cleanup project.
