Changelog

All notable changes to roadmappin.net are documented here. This project follows Keep a Changelog conventions.

1.5 - 2026-07-19

Added

  • The matrix now names its four quadrants — Quick wins, Big projects, Small tasks and Avoid — so everyone shares the same language while placing wishes.
  • The theme picker and the Options and Export menus are now navigable with the arrow keys (plus Home/End).
  • Wishes in the "To prioritize" tray can now be reordered by dragging them, or with the arrow keys when one is focused.
  • Resetting the prioritization or planning now animates the wishes flying back into their tray, one by one.
  • More small touches: dropdowns fade in, hovering a wish grows it slightly, and the drag handle on Collect shows a tooltip.

Changed

  • The tray counters now show progress as a fraction ("7 / 15") instead of just how many are left, so the finish line is visible at a glance.
  • Switching step now opens the new page scrolled back to the top, and the active-step underline slides across to the step you move to.
  • The "Reset matrix" link on Prioritize is now called "Reset prioritization".
  • The auto-fill and reset animations now speed up as there are more wishes, so a bigger board animates faster per card while the whole run stays long enough to follow.

Fixed

  • A dragged wish could occasionally get stuck on Chromium laptops; dragging now cleans up reliably even when the browser silently ends the gesture.
  • While editing a wish, Escape now cancels the edit from anywhere in the row, and the Delete button is disabled so you can't delete the row you're editing.

1.4 - 2026-07-16

Added

  • Step navigation at the bottom of every screen, so you can walk the three steps without scrolling back up to the tabs.
  • A new "Next: export" button on the Plan page enables visitors to find the export options: image (.png), table (.csv) or all data (.json).
  • A "Fill it automatically." link next to the Plan subtitle, so that visitors can more easily find the auto-fill option.
  • Pasting a wish list can now set a theme per line: wish; description; theme. A theme name that doesn't match one of your active themes is ignored.

Changed

  • Redesigned the tab bar: no grey blocks, bigger step names, larger orange arrows, and a thick orange underline under the step you're on.
  • Pasting a wish list now separates fields with a semicolon instead of a dash, which was cutting wishes like "re-design" and "e-mail" in half.
  • The matrix is sized by the width of your window only, so it no longer resizes when the visible height changes — when you open devtools, for instance.
  • Mobile optimizations: some options are hidden, the logo is now centered, the Export button shows just its icon, and Collect page leaves out the theme picker and the Theme column.
  • On a phone: the tab bar scrolls along to the step you land on, also when you get there via the logo or the browser's back button.

1.3 - 2026-07-15

Added

  • A wish now shows a clear black outline when it has keyboard focus, so it's obvious which one is selected and can be moved with the arrow keys on the Prioritize and Plan pages.
  • A double-tap (touchscreen) or double-click (mouse) on a placed wish sends it straight back to its drawer on the Prioritize and Plan pages.
  • A "Keyboard shortcuts" link in the footer that opens the shortcuts overview.

Changed

  • The keyboard tab order on Prioritize and Plan now runs from the drawer straight to the matrix/roadmap, instead of detouring past the footer first.
  • Pressing Enter on a wish in the Prioritize drawer now keeps focus on that wish as it lands in the centre of the matrix.
  • Themes are on by default for a fresh visit, seeded with three example themes: Theme 1 (coral/red), Theme 2 (mint/green) and Theme 3 (blue)
  • The Options menu entry "Delete all my data" is now simply "Delete my data".

1.2 - 2026-07-15

Added

  • The tray of wishes still to place now sits to the left of the Prioritize and Plan pages by default. Afull-screen mode is unneccessary now.
  • The navigation single header row for the whole tool: the logo and screen title on the left, the tab bar centered, and the Options/Export buttons on the right.
  • A subtle animation when switching between Collect, Prioritize and Plan.
  • A small flower next to the wordmark in the footer, pulsing once when you hover it.

Changed

  • The Prioritize and Plan pages are now wider, creating more space for the the matrix, the roadmap and the unplanned wishes drawers.
  • The impact/effort matrix is now 5:3 instead of 4:3, so wishes overlap less.
  • The footer has been simplified.
  • The empty option in the theme picker now reads "Choose…".
  • The white background was removed from the favicon and Apple touch icon.

Removed

  • Full-screen mode. Its main benefit, that it showed the unprioritized/unplanned wishes beside a bigger board, is now the normal view.

1.1 - 2026-07-14

Added

  • JSON export in the Export menu on every screen: a complete, lossless copy of your data (wishes with description and theme, matrix position or "not plotted", roadmap column and order, plus the themes themselves)
  • Import of a JSON export: the import dialog now has two tabs — "Paste a list" (the default, as before) and "File".
  • "Reset matrix" link next to the "Unplotted wishes" header, sending all plotted wishes back to the tray (the roadmap planning is left untouched).
  • Full-screen mode now available on the Collect wishes screen.
  • The tab bar (Wishes / Matrix / Roadmap) stays visible in full-screen mode, centered on the page next to the screen title, and slides into place along with the rest of the full-screen animation.
  • The "Enter full screen" button now has a tooltip showing its keyboard shortcut (Shift+Z).
  • Subtle animations in different parts of roadmappin.net
  • More keyboard shortcuts: 1, 2, 3 to switch between the different pages. The numbers correspond with the numbers shown in the tab list.

Changed

  • Footer restructured into 3 columns.
  • Streamlined mobile pages by hiding some elements, allthough mobile isn't really supported
  • Themes can now be edited.
  • Undo keyboard shortcut now also supports Mac's CMD +Z.
  • Auto-filling the roadmap now animates the wishes landing on the roadmap one by one.
  • Page titles now match the labels in the tab list: Collect, Prioritize, Plan.
  • Drag handles on the Collect pages in the wishes overview are a bit darker.
  • On the Collect screen, Export and Options are now split into two buttons.
  • Fonts are now served as .woff2 (smaller size)

Fixed

  • The theme dropdown on the Wishes screen no longer gets cut off when editing a wish near the bottom of the list.
  • Deleting a wish could silently fail if the list re-rendered during the delete animation; deleting is now guaranteed to complete.
  • The opengraph image link in head is now correctly formatted.

1.0 - 2026-07-13

Added

  • Bilingual NL/EN interface with automatic language detection and a header toggle
  • Full-screen mode for the Matrix and Roadmap views, with a sidebar listing unplaced wishes and a drag-back position indicator
  • Swipeable, clickable-dot navigation on the intro walkthrough
  • Batch-import modal for pasting a whole wishlist at once
  • Markdown export, and theme colors now included in the PNG and CSV exports
  • Optional Themes: colour-coded tags on wishes, shown as a column in the Wishes table and on the matrix/roadmap cards
  • Inline delete with a 30-second "Undo" link
  • Delete-all confirmation dialog with an export-first option
  • Auto-fill roadmap: assigns wishes to Now/Next/Later automatically from their impact/effort score, using an effort budget per lane
  • "Reset planning" link to send all wishes back to Not yet planned
  • This changelog page
  • "Manage themes" link next to the theme picker in the new-wish form, opening the same Themes dialog as the Options menu

Changed

  • Rebuilt the CSS and JavaScript as separate, purpose-named files instead of one large file each
  • Matrix is larger and locked to a 4:3 aspect ratio
  • Wishes table: editing a wish now shows title, description and theme side by side, with the theme edited in place in its own column
  • Tab bar: bigger arrows between tabs, inactive tabs shown on a grey chip instead of a shared pill background; labels renamed to Collect / Prioritize / Plan
  • Logo pulses once on hover
  • "Import wishlist" link moved directly under the new-wish input

Fixed

  • A Chromium rendering bug that made theme-colour dots render as ovals instead of circles
  • Safari: selecting a theme while editing a wish no longer closes the row before the choice is applied

0.9 - 2026-07-12

Added

  • Initial release: collect wishes, prioritize them on an impact/effort matrix, and plan them on a Now/Next/Later roadmap
