Roadmap

The AbySS interpreter already ships collections, structs, and VS Code tooling. The following initiatives outline what is launching next.

Delivered

• Collection Types – scroll, lexicon, and materia literals plus standard rituals.
• Artifact Structs – Typed schemas, literals, formatter integration, and field mutation rules.

In Flight

• Generics Introduction – Parameterize functions and data structures with type glyphs.
• Module System – Import/export spells across files for large projects.
• Error Handling – Provide first-class diagnostics and recovery primitives.
• File I/O – Extend beyond console I/O with filesystem rituals.
• Standard Library – Grow reusable helpers for day-to-day scripting.
• Interpreter Enhancements – Faster REPL feedback, better debugging hooks, and performance tuning.

Track progress via the GitHub issue tracker or discussions; proposals that modify language semantics will surface in OpenSpec first.
